Title: Non-peptide oxytocin agonists.

Authors: Pitt GR, Batt AR, Haigh RM, Penson AM, Robson PA, Rooker DP, Tartar AL, Trim JE, Yea CM, Roe MB.

Abstract: A library of compounds targeted to the vasopressin/oxytocin family of receptors was screened for activity at a cloned human oxytocin receptor using a reporter gene assay. Potency and selectivity were optimised to afford compound 39, EC50 = 33 nM. This series of compounds represents the first disclosed, non-peptide, low molecular weight agonists of the hormone oxytocin (OT).
