Atosiban Acetate

Basic Description

Structure and function:
· Atosiban acetate is a synthetic nonapeptide that is an antagonist of oxytocin and vasopressin.
Its main effect is to inhibit uterine contractions by blocking oxytocin receptors, thereby preventing premature birth.
In vitro and in vivo studies:
In in vitro experiments, atosiban acetate can significantly inhibit oxytocin-induced uterine smooth muscle contraction.
In vivo studies, atosiban acetate was effective in prolonging pregnancy and reducing the risk of preterm birth.
In clinical applications, atosiban acetate is used to treat and prevent premature birth.
