Melatonin

Dialogues in Clinical Neuroscience, 2002
Melatonin (MEL) is a hormone synthesized and secreted by the pineal gland deep within the brain in response to photoperiodic cues relayed from the retina via an endogenous circadian oscillator within the suprachiasmatic nucleus in the hypothalamus. The circadian rhythm of melatonin production and release, characterized by nocturnal activity and daytime

Acute cardiovascular effects associated with the use of prescription medications: A Danish nationwide screening study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim This study aims to conduct a hypothesis‐generating screening for acute cardiovascular effects of prescription medications. Methods This Danish nationwide screening study was conducted among incident cases of cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke (IS), heart failure (HF), venous thromboembolism (VTE),

Melatonin: Clinical Perspectives in Neurodegeneration

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Prevention of neurodegenerative diseases is presently a major goal for our Society and melatonin, an unusual phylogenetically conserved molecule present in all aerobic organisms, merits consideration in this respect.

Investigating the protective role of the natural hormone Melatonin, in reducing drug-induced cardiotoxicity in the therapy of chronic diseases [PDF]

, 2019
Heart failure (HF) is a highly complex disorder and a major end-point of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The pathogenesis of HF is mostly unresolved but involves interplay between cardiac structural and electrical remodelling, metabolic alterations, cell ...

Circadian regulation of reproduction: From gamete to offspring [PDF]

, 2013
P01326625; Grants: GNT0519315Few challenges are more critical to the survival of a species than reproduction. To ensure reproductive success, myriad aspects of physiology and behaviour need to be tightly orchestrated within the animal, as well as timed ...

Melatonin and its metabolites vs oxidative stress: From individual actions to collective protection

Journal of Pineal Research, 2018
Oxidative stress (OS) represents a threat to the chemical integrity of biomolecules including lipids, proteins, and DNA. The associated molecular damage frequently results in serious health issues, which justifies our concern about this phenomenon.

Serotonergic modulators in Alzheimer's disease: a hope in the hopeless condition

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Accepted Article.
Alzheimer disease (AD) is the main cause of dementia worldwide. AD is a progressive brain neurodegenerative disease due to genetic and environmental factors that induce a progressive accumulation of intracellular hyperphosphorylated tau protein and extracellular amyloid protein (Aβ).

A Proteomics Profiling Reveals the Neuroprotective Effects of Melatonin on Exogenous β‐amyloid‐42 Induced Mitochondrial Impairment, Intracellular β‐amyloid Accumulation and Tau Hyperphosphorylation in Human SH‐SY5Y Cells

Cell Biology International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is prevalent in the elderly population and characterized by the intracellular accumulation of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), composed of tau proteins, and extracellular deposition of beta‐amyloid protein (Aβ). The present study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of melatonin on Aβ42‐induced AD‐like ...

Mitochondria: Central Organelles for Melatonin′s Antioxidant and Anti-Aging Actions

Molecules, 2018
Melatonin, along with its metabolites, have long been known to significantly reduce the oxidative stress burden of aging cells or cells exposed to toxins. Oxidative damage is a result of free radicals produced in cells, especially in mitochondria.
