Atosiban
Based on 7 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Atosiban (RW22164; RWJ22164) is a nonapeptide competitive vasopressin/oxytocin receptor antagonist, and is a desamino-oxytocin analogue. Atosiban is the main tocolytic agent and has the potential for spontaneous preterm labor research.

Biologische Aktivität
Atosiban inhibits the oxytocin-mediated release of IP3 from the myometrial cell membrane. There is reduced release of intracellular, stored calcium from the sacroplasmic reticulum of myometrial cells, and reduced influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular space through voltage gated channels. In addition, Atosiban suppresses oxytocin-mediated release of PGE and PGF from the decidua[1].

Atosiban blocks the activation of oxytocin-receptor-expressing neurons in the parabrachial nucleus of mice[2].

Dual anterior insula-prefrontal cortex circuits mediate chronic stress-induced social interaction deficits. [Abstract]2026 Mar 26:S0896-6273(26)00120-0. PMID: 41895265

Representative traces and quantification of oEPSC amplitude with OXTR agonist (TGOT, red) or antagonist (Atosiban, blue). The results showed that during high-frequency stimulation (50 Hz), TGOT increased the amplitude of the first oEPSC, while Atosiban (1 μM) reduced it, indicating that OXTR activation strengthened synaptic transmission.

Enhancement of Oxytocin in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex Reverses Behavioral Deficits Induced by Repeated Ketamine Administration in Mice. [Abstract]2021 Sep 10:15:723064. PMID: 34566567
Atosiban purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Front Neurosci. 2021 Sep 10:15:723064. [Abstract]
The time spent in the social interaction zone was measured in the social interaction test. Pretreatment with atosiban (2.5 ng/μL; once daily for 5 days; injected into the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC)) 30 min before each oxytocin infusion in the mPFC showed a trend of attenuation of the social interaction behavior, which was improved by oxytocin in ketamine-treated mice, although there was no significant difference between groups.
