Description

Oxytocin | Neuropeptide for Receptor Research

We offer high-purity Oxytocin, a cyclic nonapeptide hormone and neuropeptide essential for a wide range of scientific investigations. This product is supplied as a lyophilized powder to ensure maximum stability and bioactivity for reliable and reproducible results in a laboratory setting.

Oxytocin is the endogenous agonist for the G protein-coupled oxytocin receptor (OXTR). It is a fundamental tool for researchers in the fields of neurobiology, pharmacology, and cell biology. Scientists utilize Oxytocin in in-vitro models to study receptor binding kinetics, signal transduction pathways, and the complex physiological responses mediated by the oxytocin system in a controlled research environment.
