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.

  1. 01AnimalNot a test of Oxytocin aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In dairy cows, PGF2alpha release after an oxytocin challenge was greater in cows fed less concentrate, which had higher plasma progesterone.

    In plain wordsIn dairy cows, oxytocin was a challenge; cows fed less concentrate released more PGF2alpha after it. This reflects progesterone, not an oxytocin effect.
