Application

[β-Mercapto-β,β-cyclopentamethylenepropionyl1, O-Me-Tyr2, Orn8]-Oxytocin has been used as an oxytocin receptor antagonist:
  • to study the influence of blockading the oxytocin receptors in the anterior cingulate cortex on helping behavior
  • to determine the receptors that mediate vasopressin-stimulated anion secretion across cultured porcine vas deferens epithelial cell monolayers
  • to study the influence of oxytocin receptors inhibition on intravenous and in situ oxytocin effects on the urinary bladder and cardiovascular activities in sham rats

Biochem/physiol Actions

Potent oxytocin antagonist.
[β-Mercapto-β,β-cyclopentamethylenepropionyl1, O-Me-Tyr2, Orn8]-also acts as an arginine vasopressin receptor 1A (AVPR1A) antagonist.

The effect of the central administration of nitroglycerin, a potent organic nitrate vasodilator, on penile erection and yawning was studied in male rats. When given intracerebroventricularly (ICV), nitroglycerin (33-99 micrograms) induced the above responses dose-dependently. The minimal effective dose was

In intact, non-ovariectomized female rats in spontaneous behavioral estrus, the i.c.v. injection of oxytocin significantly increased lordosis quotient and lordosis duration, starting from a dose of 1 ng/rat. On the other hand, the oxytocin antagonist, d(CH2)5Tyr(Me)-[Orn]8-vasotocin, injected at the same
