(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].
(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].
(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].
