Results from this study1

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

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 adult rats, nerve section had no effect on oxytocin binding sites in facial, hypoglossal or sciatic motor nuclei.

    In plain wordsIn adult rats, cutting a motor nerve did not change oxytocin binding sites in the matching motor nuclei.

    Summary · context
    To investigate whether other motor nuclei also react to axotomy by up-regulating [Arg8]VP receptors, we sectioned either a hypoglossal nerve or a sciatic nerve.

    In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Oxytocin.
