    ..7 +/- 7.34 nM compared to 7.24 +/- 0.29 nM for carbetocin and 9.89 + 2.80 nM for carbetocin metabolite I. Only carbetocin bound to the renal vasopressin V2 receptor though the binding affinity was very low (61.3 +/- 14.6 nM)...

    Biol Reprod 60:322-9. 1999
    ..The OTR down-regulation seen after atosiban treatment adds to the direct relaxing effect of atosiban on the myometrium. In view of this, atosiban may prove to be a more useful tocolytic than the traditionally used beta2 agonists...

    T Engstrøm
    Department of Internal Medicine and Endocrinology, Herlev Hospital, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
    Biol Reprod 63:1443-9. 2000
    ..In this context PGF(2alpha) receptor stimulation may, in the absence of oxytocin receptor stimulation, exert the contractile forces needed for proper propulsion of the fetus...
