Results from this study2

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

Natural levels measured2

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

  1. 01LabEndogenous levelIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In dissociated embryonic rat hypothalamic cultures, some large neurons were oxytocin-immunoreactive.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests of embryonic rat hypothalamic cells, the body's own oxytocin was detected in some large neurons.

    Summary
    A certain number of large neurons were, in addition, immunoreactive for either vasopressin or oxytocin whereas the small cells were devoid of such staining.

    Summary · context
    Dissociated cultures of retrochiasmatic hypothalamus of 18-day-old rat embryos were continuously treated with 2 X 10(-9) M angiotensin II (ang II) from the third day in vitro on.
    Summary · context
    Cultivation was terminated at days 9 and 16 in vitro, respectively.

    This result measures the body's own Oxytocin. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
