[Correlation of oxytocin with male sexual dysfunction: An update].
Male sexual dysfunction involves sexual desire disorder, penile erection disorder, insertion disorder, and ejaculation disorder according to the process of sexual activity, among which, erection disorder, premature ejaculation, hypoactive sexual desire and other related diseases are very common. Oxytocin is a neuroendocrine hormone and benefits childbirth and breastfeeding. Recent studies show that oxytocin can induce penile erection in multiple brain regions, nasal administration of oxytocin can increase sexual desire, and there is a certain correlation between oxytocin and premature ejaculation, all indicating the potential value of the studies on the correlation of oxytocin and male sexual function. This review focuses on the role of oxytocin in male erection, ejaculation/premature ejaculation and sexual desire, as well as the specific brain regions involved and the action mechanisms of oxytocin.

Characterization of semen collected by pharmacologically induced ejaculation from a stallion with seminal vesiculitis.
The present study compared the quality of sperm collected by artificial vagina or pharmacologically induced ejaculation from a 10-year-old thoroughbred stallion with seminal vesiculitis. The pharmacological protocol involved intravenous administration of detomidine (0.01 mg/kg) and oxytocin (20 IU) and successfully induced ejaculation in all attempts of semen collection. Sperm motility, plasma membrane and acrosome integrity (PMAI), reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) percentage, and bacterial profiles of fresh and cooled semen (5°C for 24 hr) were evaluated. Semen obtained by the pharmacological method presented reduced seminal volume, decreased PMN percentage and superior sperm motility in cooled samples. Moreover, higher PMAI and lower ROS levels were observed in semen collected by the pharmacological method. Therefore, pharmacologically induced ejaculation is an alternative to obtain semen with minimal contamination and with sperm of superior quality and longevity from stallions with seminal vesiculitis.
