Oxytocin Acetate Peptide – 5 MG

Description

Oxytocin Acetate  5 mg | High‑Purity OXTR Research Peptide | Research Use Only

Oxytocin Acetate is a cyclic nonapeptide research peptide used in controlled in‑vitro studies of oxytocin receptor (OXTR) signalling, Gq/PLC/IP₃/Ca²⁺ pathway activation, receptor pharmacology, and peptide–receptor interactions.

Supplied as a 5 mg lyophilised vial, Oxytocin is widely used in laboratory investigations examining receptor signalling dynamics, second‑messenger responses, and comparative studies involving oxytocin and vasopressin receptor systems.

For laboratory research only. Not for human or veterinary use.

What is Oxytocin?

Oxytocin is a naturally occurring cyclic nonapeptide featuring an intra‑chain disulfide bridge between Cys¹ and Cys⁶ and an amidated C‑terminus.

Researchers use Oxytocin to investigate:

• Oxytocin receptor (OXTR) activation
• Gq/PLC/IP₃/Ca²⁺ signalling pathways
• Peptide–receptor interactions
• Receptor selectivity studies
• GPCR pharmacology
• Receptor internalisation and desensitisation
• Comparative receptor signalling involving vasopressin receptor families

All applications are restricted to non‑clinical, in‑vitro laboratory environments.
