Oxytocin is a naturally occurring peptide hormone and neuropeptide synthesized in the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary gland. It is widely studied for its role in neuroendocrine signaling, particularly in pathways related to social behavior, emotional regulation, stress response, and physiological bonding processes. In research settings, oxytocin is examined for its dual function as both a peripheral hormone and a central nervous system signaling molecule, influencing behavioral and physiological responses depending on context and delivery method.

Oxytocin is commonly utilized in experimental models investigating social cognition, stress modulation, and neurobehavioral mechanisms. Intranasal administration is frequently employed in research to evaluate central signaling effects.
