Oxytocin and vasopressin are neurohypophyseal hormones with sequence similarity and
play a central role in bodily homeostatic regulation. Pain is currently understood to be an …

Vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT) regulate social behavior by binding to their canonical
receptors, the vasopressin V1a receptor (V1aR) and oxytocin receptor (OTR), respectively …

Background and Purpose Chemotherapy‐induced neuropathic pain (CINP) currently has
limited effective treatment. Although the roles of oxytocin (OXT) and the oxytocin receptor …

Introduction This systematic review investigates the interplay between oxytocin and
exercise; in terms of analgesic, anti-inflammatory, pro-regenerative, and cardioprotective …

Oxytocinergic transmission blocks nociception at the peripheral, spinal, and supraspinal
levels through the oxytocin receptor (OTR). Indeed, a neuronal pathway from the …

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a hypothalamic neurosecretory hormone well known as an

The hypothalamic non-apeptide oxytocin (OT) has several physiological functions, ranging
from lactation to social attachment (Gimpl and Fahrenholz, 2001). More recently, a collection …

Background Sex plays a crucial role in pain processing and response to analgesic drugs.
