Neurophysins are carrier proteins which transport the hormones oxytocin from the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and vasopressin from the supraoptic nucleus to the posterior pituitary, the site of their secretion. Neurophysins are secreted along with their passenger hormones, though their physiological roles are unknown.
