Description

Oxytocin is a neuropeptide hormone that regulates social behavior and the body's response to stress. It is produced by the hypothalamus, stored in the posterior pituitary gland, and released into the bloodstream. Oxytocin has been shown to regulate the release of prolactin from the anterior pituitary gland, as well as stimulate uterine contractions during labor. Oxytocin also plays a role in regulating blood pressure and vasopressin secretion. The activity of oxytocin is regulated by a number of factors including detection sensitivity, polyclonal antibodies, monoclonal antibodies, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), effective dose, salinity, neurosecretory sequences, and regulatory sequences such as linear regression analysis. Oxytocin has also been shown to have physiological activities including regulation of water balance through antidiuretic effects and modulation of appetite through action on receptors for ghrelin. Oxytocin is an endogenous molecule with a molecular weight of 3
