14. Oxtr signaling is crucial for entrainment of odor to social cues but is dispensable for entrainment to nonsocial cues. Oxytocin conveys saliency of social stimuli to sensory representations in the piriform cortex during odor-driven social learning. PMID:26139372
15. Study used the oxytocin analog Carbetocin and nucleus accumbens viral-mediated overexpression to assess the role of OxtR in the acquisition, extinction, and reinstatement of ethanol-induced conditioned place preference PMID:25449413
16. Oxytocin's effect on osteoblast differentiation is mediated by and dependent on the internalization of Oxtrs and their translocation to the nucleus, facilitated by successive interactions with beta-arrestins, Rab5, Kpnb1), and Tnpo1. PMID:25378700
17. Silencing of interneurons that express the oxytocin receptor in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of female mice resulted in loss of social interest in male mice specifically during the sexually receptive phase of the estrous cycle. PMID:25303526

21. Early interactions with mother and peers independently build adult social skills and shape BDNF and oxytocin receptor brain levels PMID:22910688
22. This study is the first to demonstrate that the central oxytocin/oxytocin receptor system plays important roles in the regulation of body temperature homeostasis. PMID:24002032
23. This study demonistrated that Fear-enhancing effects of septal oxytocin receptors. PMID:23872596

25. LPS increased COX-2, connexin 43, and oxytocin receptor expression in uterus. PMID:22676250
26. It was shown that male aggression is heightened in oxytocin receptor -/- mice, and that differential activation in the medial amygdala, and possibly the lateral septum, may be contributing to the heightened aggression. PMID:22609339
27. the profile for Oxtr KO mice, including consistent social deficits, and reduced levels of communication, models multiple components of the autism spectrum disorders phenotype PMID:22100185
28. We consider the processes by which experience can affect oxytocin receptor binding, and what is known about the directionality of experience effects on oxytocin receptors--REVIEW PMID:22245313
29. we do find evidence for the role of OTR in predicting maternal behavior in mice PMID:22300676
30. Mice that have Oxt receptor loss restricted to the forebrain that begins postweaning have a reduction in freezing behavior during acquisition, as well as during context and cue retention. PMID:21668734
31. Results suggest that variations of estrogen alpha/beta receptor levels are associated with differences in social interaction through the OT and AVP systems, by upregulating gene expression for those peptides and the oxytocin and vasopressin 1a receptors. PMID:21749489
32. investigation of regulation of ghrelin secretion in the MGN3-1 cell line: evidence that oxytocin and oxytocin receptors are involved PMID:21521750

34. Inflammatory cytokines modulate the expression of functional oxytocin receptors in airway smooth muscle. PMID:20670427
35. results show that in mast cells ovarian hormones modulate OTR but not serotonin transporter(SERT) expression; oxytocin action on 5HT uptake depends on OTRs expressed; signaling between OTR and the SERT is mediated through activation of protein kinase C. PMID:12374464
36. Increases in myometrial oxytocin receptor and estrogen receptor alpha expression in late pregnant relaxin+/+ mice were attenuated in relaxin-/- mice. Probably mediated via activation of estrogen receptor-alpha. PMID:12959965
