Background Information
Oxytocin (OXT) is a neuropeptide involved in social-approach behaviors in humans and others mammals (PMID: 27325757). OXT is located on chromosome 20p13 and codes for a precursor protein that is synthetized to produce oxytocin and neurophysin I, and neurophysin I is the carrier protein for oxytocin (PMID: 1486803, PMID: 18566739). Oxytocin causes contraction of the smooth muscle of the uterus and of the mammary gland. Acts by binding to oxytocin receptor (OXTR) (PMID: 18174156).
