Demoxytocin

Demoxytocin, a heterodetic cyclic peptide, is an analog of oxytocin. Demoxytocin affects the permeability of the cell membrane, increasing the content of calcium ions in smooth muscle cells, increasing its contraction. Demoxytocin also stimulates the contraction of smooth muscles of the uterus. Demoxytocin has the function of oxytocin. Demoxytocin can be used to research stimulation of labor in cases of premature rupture[1].
