Oxytozin: Evidenz für ein therapeutisches Potenzial des sozialen Neuromodulators

Eckstein, M., Hurlemann, R.·2013·Der Nervenarzt

Abstract

Only few substances have achieved such a great prominence in recent years as the hypothalamic neuropeptide oxytocin, which is also widely known as the love hormone. Oxytocin is a potent neuromodulator which can improve social cognitive functions including empathy, trust, cooperation and social learning. However, oxytocin can also promote negative social behavior and increase poor memory and feelings of fear in social situations. Positive data from initial clinical trials give rise to the hope that oxytocin will prove to be a substance which is suitable for targeted treatment of poor social-cognitive behavior in neuropsychiatric diseases. This review article summarizes the most important recent preclinical and clinical human studies and discusses the findings presented with respect to current concepts of personal and contextual influences.

  • Exogenous oxytocin administration has wide ranging prosocial effects.

    “Largely as a result of the reported wide ranging prosocial effects of exogenous OXT administration (Eckstein and Hurlemann, 2013; Scheele et al, 2013; Striepens et al, 2011), the OXT system is considered to be a promising drug target for pharmacological treatment of the various symptoms of social impairment in ASD, including reduced interest in giving or receiving social touch.”
  • Intranasal oxytocin produces anxiolytic-like effects as a result of dampened amygdala reactivity to threat.

    “Studies of intranasally delivered exogenous OXT (OXT IN ) have shown that the peptide produces anxiolytic-like effects as a result of dampened amygdala reactivity to threat (Eckstein and Hurlemann, 2013;Domes et al, 2007, but see Lischke et al, 2012)”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
