Results from this study1

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

Natural levels measured1

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. 01AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In rat hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal neurons, immunoelectron microscopy showed sex hormone binding globulin co-localized with the body's own oxytocin in a portion of large dense-core vesicles.

    In plain wordsIn rats, the body's own oxytocin was found in the same nerve vesicles as sex hormone binding globulin.

    Summary
    With immunoelectron-microscopic double labeling, we found co-localization of oxytocin and sex hormone binding globulin in a portion of the large dense-core vesicles in paraventricular and supraoptic perikarya and in axonal varicosities in the median eminence and in the posterior lobe.
