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.

    In 185 Caucasian individuals, the GG genotype at oxytocin receptor rs53576 was linked to lower hypnotizability than the A allele.

    In plain wordsIn adults, people with the GG version of the oxytocin receptor gene scored lower on hypnotizability than A allele carriers. Oxytocin was not given.

    Summary
    Participants with the GG genotype at rs53576 were characterized by lower hypnotizability and absorption scores than those with the A allele; there was no association between hyponotizability and COMT.

    Summary · context
    To test this proposal, 185 Caucasian individuals provided saliva samples for analysis of polymorphisms in the oxytocin receptor gene, COMT, and independently completed standardized measures of hypnotizability and absorption.
