Oxytocin Receptor

Oxytocin receptor antagonists and agonists act on the receptor for the neurohypophysial hormone oxytocin. The human oxytocin receptor was cloned and characterized in 1992 as a member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. In peripheral tissues it mediates uterine contraction and milk ejection, while central oxytocin signaling is studied in social behavior. Atosiban is a peptide antagonist that also binds the vasopressin V1a receptor. Retosiban, epelsiban and L-368,899 hydrochloride are nonpeptide oxytocin receptor antagonists. Carbetocin is a long-acting peptide agonist, and oxytocin itself serves as the reference ligand in binding and functional assays.
