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 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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Bile acids increase response and expression of human myometrial oxytocin receptor
(MOSBY, INC, 2003)
OBJECTIVE: We tested the hypothesis that during intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy bile acids activate the myometrial oxytocin receptor pathway.
Expression of oxytocin receptors in canine mammary tumours
(Elsevier, 2019-07)
The aims of the present study were: (1) to investigate the presence of oxytocin receptors in benign and malignant canine mammary tumours (CMTs) and to evaluate the possible association between oxytocin receptor (OTR) ...
Epigenetic evidence for involvement of the oxytocin receptor gene in obsessive–compulsive disorder
(BioMed Central, 2016)
Abstract
Background
Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is a chronic neurodevelopmental disorder that affects up to 3% of the general population. Although epigenetic ...
Oxytocin effects on osteoblastic differentiation of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells from adult and aging female Wistar rats
(2018-11-01)
Recently, it has been suggested that oxytocin (OT) might play a role in the control of bone remodeling and in bone health of young and adult females. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of osteogenic medium ...
The inhibitory effect of anandamide on oxytocin and vasopressin secretion from neurohypophysis is mediated by nitric oxide
(Elsevier Science, 2014-01)
The neurohypophyseal hormones oxytocin (OT) and vasopressin (VP) are involved in behavioral, autonomic and neuroendocrine functions. Both peptides are synthesized in magnocellular neurons of paraventricular and supraoptic ...
