Products Description
Oxytocin Acetate is a synthetic cyclic nonapeptide with the amino acid sequence Cys-Tyr-Ile-Gln-Asn-Cys-Pro-Leu-Gly-NH₂. It forms a characteristic ring structure via a disulfide bond between Cys1 and Cys6 and is prepared in acetate form. It appears as white to off-white lyophilized powder and acts as an oxytocin receptor agonist, widely used in basic research in neuroscience, endocrinology and receptor signaling pathways.
Product Applications
Exploration of neural mechanisms: It is mostly used to analyze the regulatory effects of oxytocin in social attachment, emotional regulation and stress response. Cell and animal experiments are adopted to explore the operating rules of relevant neural circuits, helping researchers understand the molecular basis behind social and emotional behaviors.
Verification of reproductive and endocrine mechanisms: Oxytocin Acetate can be used as a tool peptide to carry out in vitro and in vivo animal experiments such as uterine smooth muscle contraction and lactation signal regulation. It helps researchers analyze the underlying mechanisms of reproductive-related physiological activities and supports basic research projects in the field of reproductive endocrinology.
Pharmacological evaluation of GPCR receptors: As a specific agonist of OXTR, it is suitable for the determination of receptor binding activity and the analysis of intracellular downstream signal transduction. It can also be used for activity screening and comparative evaluation of new similar receptor ligands, serving as a commonly used tool molecule in receptor pharmacology research.
Construction of animal behavior models: Administration is performed on various model animals to observe the changes of the peptide on phenotypic indicators such as social recognition ability and anxiety-like behaviors. It is used to verify the correlation between the oxytocin signaling pathway and animal behavioral phenotypes, supporting research projects in the field of behavioral science.
FAQs for Oxytocin Acetate
Q: How long is the production and lead time after placing an order?
A: In-stock products can be shipped promptly once payment is confirmed. The lead time for custom orders will be evaluated based on your customization requirements, and we will provide the estimated delivery time at the quotation stage.
Q: Does caking of the lyophilized powder mean that the product has deteriorated?
A: Caking caused by moisture absorption does not directly mean peptide degradation or deterioration, but it indicates that the sealing of the package has been compromised. There are risks of water absorption and contamination, so it is not recommended for use in rigorous scientific research experiments.
Q: What is the correct storage method after receiving the product?
A: For long-term storage, the peptide lyophilized powder is recommended to be sealed and protected from light at -20°C. It can be refrigerated at 2–8°C for short-term storage. Minimize repeated opening of the vial and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to slow down peptide degradation and maintain the original quality of the product.
