Here’s how it works. Oxytocin, sometimes called the "love hormone," may help heal broken hearts — literally. In a new study of zebrafish and human cells, scientists found that the brain-made ...

However, oxytocin has other biological roles, some of them still poorly understood. Your research utilized zebrafish and human cell cultures to demonstrate that oxytocin has another surprising ...

Oxytocin, the neurohormone responsible for pleasure, has been found to help regenerate cardiomyocytes in zebrafish and human stem cell cultures. A new study from Michigan State University (MI, USA), ...

[2] Researchers have found a new human monoclonal antibody that can neutralize snake neurotoxins across species and geographies. However, mutant zebrafish genetically altered to silence oxytocin ...
