Anandamide regulates oxytocin/oxytocin receptor system in human placenta at term
(Elsevier, 2020-04)
Oxytocin plays a pivotal role in the regulation of human parturition, however its role and modulation in the placenta is not fully understood. Non-labour cesarean section placentas were cultured with the endocannabinoid ...
Oxytocin neurone activity and release following administration of Melanotan-II in anaesthetised ratsOxytocin neurone activity and release following administratión of melanotan-ii in anaesthetised rats
(2017)
Oxytocin release within the brain modulates several social behaviours in animals and humans. Moreover, low central oxytocin content has been linked to neuropsychiatric disorders, such as anxiety and autism. The exogenous ...
Oxytocin Modulates Nociception as an Agonist of Pain-Sensing TRPV1
(2017)
Oxytocin is a hormone with various actions. Oxytocin-containing parvocellular neurons project to the brainstem and spinal cord. Oxytocin release from these neurons suppresses nociception of inflammatory pain, the molecular ...
Endogenous vs exogenous oxytocin
(Elsevier, 2015)
Oxytocin was isolated and synthesized for the first time by Vincent du Vigneaud in 1953, work for which he received two years later, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Since then, it has been one of the research fields to the ...
Differental effects of glatamate agonist and D-aspartate on oxytocin release from hypothalamus and posterior pituitary of male rats.
(Humana Press, 2001-12)
In order to determine whether ionotropic (iGluRs) and metabotropic (mGluRs) glutamate receptor activation modulates oxytocin release in male rats, we investigated the effect of agonists of both types of glutamate receptors ...
Oxytocin effects on gazing at the human face in retriever dogs
(Elsevier Science, 2020-06)
Oxytocin is a neurohormone involved in domestic dogs’ socio-cognitive abilities which appears to be key in the display of gazing behavior as a communicative signal. However, differential effects of oxytocin have been ...
Serum oxytocin concentrations in elective caesarean delivery: a randomized comparison of three infusion regimens
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2011)
Background: The aim of this study was to determine serum oxytocin concentrations following different regimens of prophylactic oxytocin administration in women undergoing elective caesarean delivery. Methods: Thirty healthy ...
Effect of oxytocin on transepithelial transport of water and Na+ in distinct ventral regions of frog skin (Rana catesbeiana)
(Springer, 1996-06-01)
Thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic fragments of ventral skin of Rana catesbeiana were analysed regarding the effect of oxytocin on: (1) transepithelial water transport; (2) short-circuit current, (3) skin conductance and ...
