Om Oxytocin Acetate
Oxytocin is a nine-amino acid neuropeptide produced in the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary. Its roles span social bonding, uterine contractions, lactation, and neuromodulation — a breadth that has made it one of the most studied peptides in behavioral and social neuroscience over the past 30 years. Oxytocin acetate is supplied here for research applications requiring the endogenous sequence.
The “love hormone” or “bonding hormone” framing is popular but oversimplified. Oxytocin’s effects in research models are context-dependent and sometimes counterintuitive — studies report both enhanced prosocial behavior toward in-group members and hostility toward out-group members. The oxytocin receptor (OXTR) is expressed in the hypothalamus, limbic system, and throughout the periphery including uterus, mammary gland, and cardiovascular tissue. This broad expression pattern means oxytocin has multiple research contexts beyond behavioral neuroscience: it is studied in research models for anti-inflammatory properties, HPA axis stress-response modulation, cardiovascular function, and roles in metabolic homeostasis.
In reproductive biology, oxytocin’s pharmacology is well-characterised: it is studied for stimulating uterine smooth-muscle contraction and milk ejection through OXTR signalling, mechanisms that have been extensively documented in research models and provide a large body of pharmacological data on the peptide.

Förvaring
Store at -20°C protected from light. Refrigerate at 2-8°C after reconstitution and use within 14 days. Oxytocin is sensitive to light and oxidation — minimize exposure during handling.
Is oxytocin really a “love hormone”?
The “love hormone” framing captures a real research finding but oversimplifies the pharmacology significantly. In research models, oxytocin is associated with enhanced social bonding, trust, and affiliative behavior in many studies — particularly within recognized groups. But studies also report increased in-group favoritism and out-group hostility in some experimental contexts, heightened envy and gloating, and effects that vary substantially by individual, context, and baseline social environment. The research picture is that oxytocin amplifies social salience broadly rather than simply promoting positive bonding — which explains why it is associated with pro-social and anti-social effects depending on context.
What are oxytocin’s effects beyond social behavior?
Oxytocin has well-documented effects in research models outside social neuroscience. In reproductive biology, it is studied for stimulating uterine contractions and milk ejection — the basis for a large body of research on its smooth-muscle pharmacology. It is studied for modulating HPA axis function and attenuating the stress response in research models. Anti-inflammatory properties have been reported, with research showing effects on cytokine profiles and immune function. Cardiovascular research includes modulation of heart rate and blood pressure in model systems. More recently, oxytocin has been studied in metabolic contexts — OXTR is expressed in adipose tissue and oxytocin is studied for effects on energy homeostasis and body weight in rodent models.
Oxytocin acetate is supplied for research purposes only. Not for human consumption. Handle in compliance with institutional biosafety guidelines.

Peptider i lyofiliserad (frystorkad) form skickas i förseglade glasvialer med standardleveransmetoder och kräver ingen kylning under transporten. Lyofiliserade peptider är mycket stabila vid omgivningstemperatur under hela den normala frakttiden (typiska transporttider visas i kassan). När du tagit emot produkten ska du snabbt flytta den till kyld förvaring (2–8°C).
Vanliga frågor
Forskningspeptider levereras i lyofiliserad (frystorkad) form. Mängden material är vanligtvis bara några milligram — och framträder som en mycket tunn film eller en liten pellet i botten av vialen, ofta nästan osynlig. Detta är helt normalt.
Till skillnad från vissa leverantörer som tillsätter fyllnadsmedel (som mannitol) tillhandahåller CertaPeptides ren peptid utan onödiga tillsatser.
