Divergent effects of oxytocin treatment of obese diabetic mice on adiposity and diabetes.

Endocrinology 155(11) , 4189-201, (2014)

Oxytocin has been suggested as a novel therapeutic against obesity, because it induces weight loss and improves glucose tolerance in diet-induced obese rodents. A recent clinical pilot study confirmed...

Intracerebroventricular oxytocin administration in rats enhances object recognition and increases expression of neurotrophins, microtubule-associated protein 2, and synapsin I.

J. Neurosci. Res. 93(6) , 893-901, (2015)

Brain oxytocin regulates a variety of social and affiliative behaviors and affects also learning and memory. However, mechanisms of its action at the level of neuronal circuits are not fully understoo...

The regulation of oxytocin receptor gene expression during adipogenesis.

J. Neuroendocrinol. 27(5) , 335-42, (2015)

Although it has been reported that oxytocin stimulates lipolysis in adipocytes, changes in the expression of oxytocin receptor (OTR) mRNA in adipogenesis are still unknown. The present study aimed to ...
