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 rat and mouse supraoptic nucleus, SK3 channels showed weak co-localization with oxytocin neurons but strong staining around them.

    In plain wordsIn rats and mice, the SK3 channel marker was weak inside oxytocin cells and strong around them.

    Summary
    Double staining for oxytocin or vasopressin neurons revealed weak co-localization with SK3 but strong staining surrounding each neuron type.

    Summary · context
    To determine the distribution of SK3 channels within the SON, we used immunocytochemistry in rats and in transgenic mice with a regulatory cassette on the SK3 gene, allowing regulated expression with dietary doxycycline (DOX).

    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.
