oxytocin receptor

Oxytocin acetate (α-Hypophamine acetate) is a mammalian neurohypophysial hormone, a ligand of oxytocin receptor.

Atosiban (RW22164) is an inhibitor of the hormones oxytocin and vasopressin. It is used as an intravenous medication as a labour repressant (tocolytic) to halt premature labor. Atosiban inhibits the oxytocin-mediated release of inositol trisphosphate from the myometrial cell membrane. As a result, there is reduced release of intracellular, stored calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum of myometrial cells, and reduced influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular space through voltage gated channels. In addition, atosiban suppresses oxytocin-mediated release of PGE and PGF from the decidua. In human pre-term labor, atosiban, at the recommended dosage, antagonizes uterine contractions and induces uterine quiescence. The onset of uterus relaxation following atosiban is rapid, uterine contractions being significantly reduced within 10 minutes to achieve stable uterine quiescence.

(d(CH2)51,Tyr(Me)2, Orn8)-Oxytocin (OVT) is an oxytocin receptor antagonist used in neurological disease research [1].

Pro8-Oxytocin, a modified oxytocin (OXT) ligand, elicits more potent and efficacious responses at primate OXTR and induces stronger behavioral effects compared to the standard mammalian OXT ligand (Leu8-Oxytocin). It demonstrates lower efficacy than Vasopressin (AVP) at human AVPR1a, yet shows a higher efficacious response at marmoset AVPR1a [1].

Pro8-Oxytocin TFA, a modified oxytocin (OXT) ligand, exhibits greater potency and efficacy than the standard mammalian OXT ligand, Leu8-Oxytocin, at primate OXTR and elicits more pronounced behavioral effects. Compared to vasopressin (AVP), Pro8-Oxytocin TFA has a lower efficacious response at human AVPR1a, yet shows a higher efficacy at the marmoset AVPR1a [1].

(Val3,Pro8)-Oxytocin functions primarily as a Gq-dependent pathway agonist and exhibits secondary activity as a reduced efficacy agonist for β-arrestin recruitment and receptor-mediated endocytosis at the oxytocin receptor (OXTR) [1].

Ota-vasotocin is a ligand utilized in quantitative receptor autoradiography for oxytocin receptors.

Barusiban is an oxytocin receptor antagonist.

(Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin, an analogue of Oxytocin and a specific OT receptor agonist, not only activates TRPV1 channels to excite subicular neurons but also reduces the activity of potassium (K+) channels. [1] [2].

(D(CH2)51,Tyr(Me)2,Thr4,Orn8,des-Gly-NH29)-Vasotocin, serving as an oxytocin receptor antagonist, effectively nullifies the augmentation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents in CA1 pyramidal neurons by oxytocin [1].

L 366682 is an oxytocin antagonist.

Cargutocin is a biochemical.

[Asp5]-Oxytocin is the first 5-position neurohypophyseal hormone analogue with significant biological activity.

Demoxytocin, an analog of oxytocin and a heterodetic cyclic peptide, enhances cell membrane permeability to elevate calcium ion levels in smooth muscle cells, thereby augmenting contraction, including the smooth muscles of the uterus. This compound mirrors oxytocin's function and is utilized in studies focusing on labor induction following premature rupture [1].

[Asp5]-Oxytocin acetate is a neurohypophyseal hormone analogue positioned at the 5-position, noted for its significant biological activity. It stimulates uterine contractions in vitro, an effect that is amplified by the presence of Mg 2+. Furthermore, this compound exhibits rat uteroconstrictor, avian vasodilator, and rat antidiuretic capabilities.

Vasopressin Dimer (parallel) TFA, a parallel dimer of Vasopressin, has the capability to activate four G protein-coupled receptors—namely, V1aR, V1bR, V2R, and OTR [1].

Vasopressin Dimer (anti-parallel) TFA, an anti-parallel dimer form of vasopressin, has the capability to activate four G protein-coupled receptors: V1aR, V1bR, V2R, and OTR [1].

Lysipressin ([Lys8]-Vasopressin), Induces contraction of the rabbit urinary bladder smooth muscle, activate adenylate-cyclase. Lysipressin is Antidiuretic hormone that have been found in pigs and some marsupial families.

Oxytocin parallel dimer is a homo peptide dimer connected by a disulfide bridge.

Oxytocin free acid, also known as 9-Deamidooxytocin, is an analog of oxytocin where the glycinamide residue at position 9 has been substituted with a glycine residue. Oxytocin, a pleiotropic peptide hormone, has wide-ranging implications for general health, adaptation, development, reproduction, and social behavior.

[Leu3]-Oxytocin, an analogue of oxytocin, is a derivative wherein the leucine amino acid (Leu) replaces the amino acid at the 3rd position in the sequence.
