Results from this study2

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

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 female rats exposed to ethanol during development, oxytocin receptor binding in the amygdala region was lower than in controls.

    In plain wordsIn rats, females exposed to alcohol early in life had less oxytocin receptor binding in the amygdala region than controls.

    Summary · context
    This study exposed rats to ethanol during both the prenatal and early postnatal periods.
    Summary · context
    Two control groups included a group exposed to the administration procedures but not ethanol and a non-treated group.
