Description

DESCRIPTION

Oxytocin 10mg is a cyclic nonapeptide characterized by a six-residue ring closed by an intramolecular disulfide bridge and a three-residue C-terminal tail. In laboratory models it is studied as a ligand at the oxytocin receptor (OXTR), a class A G protein-coupled receptor that couples primarily to Gq/11 and downstream phospholipase C signaling, with documented cross-reactivity at vasopressin receptor subtypes. Research interest centers on its receptor-binding kinetics, intracellular calcium and second-messenger signaling cascades, and structure-activity relationships governed by the disulfide-stabilized conformation. This material is provided strictly as a reference compound for in vitro and non-clinical investigation.
