• Description: 1-Butanoic acid-2-(O-methyl-L-tyrosine)-1-carbaoxytocin (BMT) is a synthetic analog of oxytocin. Oxytocin is a hormone that is produced in the hypothalamus and released by the pituitary gland to stimulate uterine contractions and milk letdown in mammals. 1-Butanoic acid-2-(O-methyl-L-tyrosine)-1-carbaoxytocin has been shown to bind to the oxytocin receptor and stimulate the release of insulin, which may be useful for treating type 2 diabetes. BMT also stimulates epidermal growth factor (EGF) production and induces skin cell growth. It has been used as an animal health drug for stimulating appetite, increasing weight gain, reducing inflammation, and lowering blood pressure.
