Circadian and seasonal alterations of lysosomes were studied in myocardium and hepatocytes of intact rabbits by means of electron microscopy and biochemical techniques. The daily-seasonal rhythm of lysosomes was related to concentration of free fatty acids in blood as well as to helio-geomagnetical activity.

Melatonin and Human Chronobiology [PDF]
With the development of accurate and sensitive assays for measuring melatonin in plasma and saliva, it has been possible to advance our understanding of human chronobiology. In particular, the dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) is expected to have an increasingly important role in the diagnosis of circadian phase disorders and their treatment with ...
