Oxytocin is a pleiotropic hypothalamic peptide that helps in childbirth, lactation and prosocial behavior[1]. Oxytocin can act as a stress response molecule with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and neuroprotective effects[2]. Oxytocin can regulate the growth of cancer cells by activating oxytocin receptors[3].
In vitro, Oxytocin (1μM) treatment of SH-SY5Y cells for 12h significantly increased the amount of total protein in cell lysates and significantly reduced the concentration of neurotrophic growth factor (NGF)[4]. Treatment of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) with Oxytocin (1nM) stimulated cell migration and invasion[5]. Treatment of hTERTmyo and SK-UT-1 cells with Oxytocin (1μM) for 24-96h inhibited the proliferation of both cells in a time-dependent manner[6].
In vivo, Oxytocin (0.2mg/kg) was administered intranasally to treat valproic acid (VPA)-induced autistic mice, which improved the behavior of autistic mice, reduced anxiety, depression, and repetitive behaviors, and improved social interactions[7]. Oxytocin (0.1-0.3mg/kg) was administered subcutaneously to treat phencyclidine-induced hyperactive rats, which significantly reduced the hyperactive behavior of the rats and increased prosocial behavior[8].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | SH-SY5Y cells |
Preparation Method | Cells were incubated in presence of Oxytocin (1μM) for 12 or 96h. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) or Neurotrophic growth factor (NGF) was measured by ELISA. |
Reaction Conditions | 1μM; 12, 96h |
Applications | Neurotrophic Factors Oxytocin (1μM, 12h) significantly increased amount of total proteins measured in SH-SY5Y cell lysates. Concentration of BDNF related to proteins did not change significantly, while that of NGF significantly decreased in response to Oxytocin. No effect of Oxytocin on neurotrophic factors was observed after 24 or 48h. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | C57BL/6J mice |
Preparation Method | The pregnant mice were randomly divided into 2 groups: the control group and valproate (VPA) group. At E12.5, pregnant mice in the VPA group received VPA (600mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection) to induce autism of offsprings. Pregnant mice in the control group received equal amounts of normal saline. Male offspring were used for subsequent experiments. After identification of autism, the offspring were divided into 3 groups: the control group, autism group and autism+Oxytocin group. At postnatal day 30 (P30), offspring in autism+Oxytocin group received Oxytocin (0.2mg/kg; intranasal administration). 30min later, animal behavior tests were performed. |
Dosage form | 0.2mg/kg; intranasal administration |
Applications | Oxytocin improved the behaviors of autistic mice, with less anxiety, depression and repetitive behavior, and ameliorated social interaction. |
