Oxytocin in the circadian timing of birth.

PloS one - 26 Sept 2007

Roizen Jeffrey, Luedke Christina E, Herzog Erik D, Muglia Louis J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The molecular components determining the timing for birth remain an incompletely characterized aspect of reproduction, with important conceptual and therapeutic ramifications for management of preterm, post-term and arrested labor. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: To test the hypothesis that oxytocin mediates circadian regulation of birth, we evaluated parturition timing following shifts in light...
