Results from this study2

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Oxytocin.

    In the rat median eminence, corticotropin-releasing factor and oxytocin neurosecretory granules were colocalized in the same fibers of the internal layer.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests of rat median-eminence tissue, oxytocin and CRF granules were found in the same fibers of the internal layer.

    Summary
    The peroxidase-antiperoxidase technique used on serial ultrathin sections revealed CRF and oxytocin neurosecretory granule colocalization in the same fibers of the internal layer running towards the posterior pituitary.

    Summary · context
    Comparative ultrastructural localization of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and oxytocin was performed in the rat median eminence of Long Evans and Brattleboro rats.
