Application
Atosiban has been used:
- as an oxytocin receptor antagonist
- in the calcium mobilization assay for Z factor determination in uterine myometrium (UT-myo cells) and as a therapeutic agent to inhibit preterm labor
- to inhibit the activation of oxytocin-receptor-expressing neurons in the parabrachial nucleus of mice (OxtrPBN)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Atosiban efficiently prevent preterm uterine contractions without any major cardiovascular, pulmonary or central nervous system side effects. It has potential to treat preterm labour.
Atosiban is a peptide oxytocin receptor antagonist.
