FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Oxytocin approved for human use?

No. Oxytocin is supplied for in vitro laboratory research only. It is not a drug, food, supplement or cosmetic, and research findings do not establish its safety or effectiveness for human or veterinary use.

Yes. Oxytocin is a cyclic nonapeptide (nine amino acids) held in a ring by a disulfide bond between its two cysteine residues.

It is used as a reference agonist at the oxytocin receptor (OXTR), a Gq-coupled GPCR, in receptor-binding and calcium-signaling assays, smooth muscle cell models, and preclinical neuropeptide signaling research. Findings should be interpreted within their experimental context.
