Demoxytocin (0.10mg/capsule), 30 Capsules

Demoxytocin Peptide is a favorite in comparative endocrinology and pharmacology studies because it acts as a more “robust” version of native oxytocin.

Key Areas of Laboratory Investigation:

• Enzymatic Resilience: The defining characteristic of Demoxytocin peptide is its lack of a free amino group at the N-terminus. Laboratory research focuses on how this structural change prevents cleavage by aminopeptidases, resulting in a significantly longer biological half-life compared to native oxytocin.

   

• Calcium Signaling & Smooth Muscle: Like its natural counterpart, Demoxytocin acts as a selective Oxytocin Receptor (OTR) agonist. In experimental models, it is studied for its ability to increase cell membrane permeability to calcium ions ($Ca^{2+}$), facilitating the phosphorylation of myosin light chains and inducing smooth muscle contraction.

   

• Uterine & Mammary Research: Studies utilize Demoxytocin to observe labor induction dynamics and myoepithelial cell contraction in mammary gland models. Due to its potency, it is often used to establish dose-response curves for uterine hypertonicity.

   

• Neurological & Social Behavior Models: Beyond peripheral tissues, researchers examine Demoxytocin’s potential in the Central Nervous System (CNS) to study social bonding, anxiety modulation, and the “anti-nociceptive” (pain-relieving) effects of OTR signaling.
