Oxytocin Acetate

Cys-Tyr-Ile-Gln-Asn-Cys-Pro-Leu-Gly-NH₂

Oxytocin Acetate is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring neuropeptide hormone oxytocin. FDA-approved for obstetric uses including labor induction, augmentation, and postpartum hemorrhage prevention. In research settings, it shows promise for treating autism spectrum disorders and enhancing social cognition through its effects on oxytocin receptors in the brain and peripheral tissues.

Complete Research Database

Dual Receptor Mechanism (GIP/GLP-1)

GLP-1 Receptor Pathway

  • •Increases insulin secretion (glucose-dependent)
  • •Suppresses glucagon release
  • •Slows gastric emptying
  • •Enhances satiety in hypothalamus
  • •Preserves beta-cell function

GIP Receptor Pathway

  • •Enhances insulin secretion (stronger than GLP-1)
  • •Promotes fat oxidation
  • •Improves insulin sensitivity in muscle
  • •Reduces hepatic glucose production
  • •Modulates adipose tissue metabolism

Why Dual Agonism is Superior

Oxytocin Acetate binds to oxytocin receptors (OXTR), which are G-protein coupled receptors located in uterine myometrium, mammary glands, and central nervous system. Receptor activation triggers phospholipase C activation, leading to increased intracellular calcium levels and smooth muscle contraction. In the CNS, oxytocin modulates neurotransmitter release affecting social behavior, stress response, and maternal bonding through hypothalamic-pituitary pathways.
