The influence of season, photoperiod, and pineal melatonin on immune function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
In addition to the well-documented seasonal cycles of mating and birth, there are also significant seasonal cycles of illness and death among many animal populations.

The direct response of the gonads to cues of stress in a temperate songbird species is season-dependent. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) system in the hypothalamus is often considered the final point in integration of environmental cues as they pertain to the reproductive axis.

Targeting RBM10‐Repressed RORB Activity in Liquid Condensates Inhibits Lysosomal Biogenesis and Neuroblastoma Progression via Affecting NF‐κB Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies that RBM10 represses the transcriptional activity of RORB in liquid condensates, resulting in down‐regulation of NR1D1 and RIOK3 that further activates NF‐κB activity to facilitate lysosomal biogenesis and aggressive features of NB cells.

Natural melatonin fluctuation and its minimally invasive simulation in the zebra finch [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Melatonin is a key hormone in the regulation of circadian rhythms of vertebrates, including songbirds. Understanding diurnal melatonin fluctuations and being able to reverse or simulate natural melatonin levels are critical to investigating the influence

Evaluation and Management of Sleep Disorders in the Hand Surgery Patient. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Despite posing a significant public health threat, sleep disorders remain poorly understood and often underdiagnosed and mismanaged. Although sleep disorders are seemingly unrelated, hand surgeons should be mindful of these because numerous conditions of

Bioinspired Engineering beyond Homeostasis

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This perspective article introduces systems biology as the unifying theoretical framework behind bioinspired engineering. As an example, it explores how disruptions in multiscale biological systems, associated with pathological states, can be viewed as localized failure modes of biological cooperation showing emergent advantages that can inspire ...

Melatonin Is Involved in Regulation of Bermudagrass Growth and Development and Response to Low K+ Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) plays critical roles in plant growth and development and during the response to multiple abiotic stresses. However, the roles of melatonin in plant response to K+ deficiency remain largely unknown.

From implantation to birth: insight into molecular melatonin functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Melatonin is a lipophilic hormone synthesized and secreted mainly in the pineal gland, acting as a neuroendocrine transducer of photoperiodic information during the night.

Growth Standards for Children With Smith–Magenis Syndrome (SMS)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smith–Magenis syndrome (SMS, OMIM 182290) is a complex syndromic diagnosis marked by neurobehavioral differences and distinct facial dysmorphisms, caused by haploinsufficiency of the retinoic acid‐1 (RAI1) gene either by a pathogenic sequence variant or deletion at chromosome 17p11.2 involving a portion or all of this gene.

Is Melatonin the Cornucopia of the 21st Century?

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2020
Melatonin, an indoleamine hormone produced and secreted at night by pinealocytes and extra-pineal cells, plays an important role in timing circadian rhythms (24-h internal clock) and regulating the sleep/wake cycle in humans.
