Literature
Research context
Oxytocin's synthesis by du Vigneaud won the 1955 Nobel Prize in Chemistry and established solution-phase peptide chemistry. Modern literature covers OXTR receptor binding and cross-reactivity with vasopressin receptors, social-behaviour paradigms in rodents and voles, and central versus peripheral receptor distribution mapping.
