Oxytocin is a nonapeptide hormone produced naturally in the hypothalamus and secreted by the posterior pituitary. It is widely studied for its regulatory roles in social behavior, emotional regulation, sexual reproduction, and maternal-infant bonding.
In addition to its behavioral effects, oxytocin also plays a role in smooth muscle contraction, particularly during labor and lactation. Its applications in research continue to expand into neurological, psychiatric, and metabolic models.
