Oxytocin is a cyclic nonapeptide hormone released from the posterior pituitary. It activates the oxytocin receptor and is widely studied in uterine contractility, lactation, neuroendocrine signaling and social-behavior pathways.

• peptide hormone and GPCR research
• neuroendocrine signaling
• metabolic or renal physiology
• receptor and structure-activity studies

Disulfide connectivity, phosphorylation, sulfation, amidation and affinity labels are integral to exact product identity and should be preserved in comparative assays.
