Description | (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin, an Oxytocin analogue, is a specific OT receptor agonist. (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin also excites subicular neurons via activation of TRPV1 channels, and depression of K+ channels. [1][2]. |

OT receptors, K+ channels[1]. |
In Vitro | (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin (1 μM, 1 min) evokes an inward current of 5.9 pA in paraventricular thalamus (PVT) neurons[1]. (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin (1 μM, 1 min) increases spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents (sEPSCs) frequency in PVT neurons[1]. (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin (0.3 μM, 5 min) induces depolarization in both bursting cells and regular firing cells[2]. (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin (0.3 μM, 5 min) depolarizes subicular neurons by activating TRPV1 channels[2]. |
In Vivo | (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin (1 μM, direct intra-PVT infusion for 1 min) evokes depolarization on TGOT-responsive neurons in mice[1]. (Thr4,Gly7)-Oxytocin (100 ng, intracerebroventrical injection) increases nitric oxide production in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus of male rats[3]. Animal Model: Swiss Webster mice [1] Dosage: 1 μM Administration: Intratracheal administration for 24 h Result: Excited 34.3% of aPVT neurons, 57.6% of mPVT neurons, and 60.0% of pPVT neurons. Increased the firing rate of TGOT-responsive PVT neurons in all subregions. |
