Melatonin as a chronobiotic

Sleep Medicine Reviews, 2005
Melatonin, hormone of the pineal gland, is concerned with biological timing. It is secreted at night in all species and in ourselves is thereby associated with sleep, lowered core body temperature, and other night time events. The period of melatonin secretion has been described as 'biological night'.

Melatonin and Melatonin Receptors in Neuroprotection

2016
Melatonin (Mel) is a neurohormone which is synthesized from tryptophan with the activation of beta-adrenergic receptors of the pineal gland [2, 11, 36]. It is chemically known as N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine [1]. The main task of this hormone is adjusting the rhythm of the body and protecting the biological clock of the body.

Melatonin and Aging

2023
The health problems associated with the aging process are becoming increasingly widespread due to the increase in mean life expectancy taking place globally. While decline of many organ functions is an unavoidable concomitant of senescence, these can be delayed or moderated by a range of factors.

Melatonin as an Apoptosis Antagonist

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006
Abstract:  The pineal hormone melatonin (Mel), in addition to having a well‐established role as a regulator of circadian rhythms, modulates nonneural compartments by acting on specific plasma membrane receptors (MT1/MT2) present in many different cell types. Mel plays immunomodulatory roles and is an oncostatic and antiproliferative agent; this led to

Effects of Melatonin and Melatonin Agonists on Circadian Rhythms

2013
Daily rhythms in physiological and behavioral processes are controlled by a network of circadian clocks, reset by inputs and delivering circadian signals to the brain and peripheral organs. In mammals, at the top of the network is a master clock located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) reset by ambient light.

Toxicology of Melatonin

Journal of Biological Rhythms, 1997
Despite the fact that melatonin has been released for public use in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration and is available over the counter nationwide, there currently is a total lack of information on the toxicology of melatonin. In Europe, melatonin has a completely different status in that it is considered a "neurohormone" and cannot
