| Description | Oxytocin free acid (9-Deamidooxytocin) is a degradation product of oxytocin. It is an analog of oxytocin in which the glycinamide residue at position 9 in oxytocin has been replaced by a glycine residue. Oxytocin is a pleiotropic, peptide hormone with broad implications for general health, adaptation, development, reproduction, and social behavior. |
