Melatonin bridges timekeeping and survival: coordinating diurnal rhythms, autophagy, and energy balance in upland cotton

Plant Stress
Melatonin is widely recognized for its regulatory role in animal circadian rhythms, but its functional significance in plant chronobiology, especially its integration with energy metabolism and autophagy, remains poorly understood.

Melatonin secretion in a strictly subterranean mammal, the Damaraland mole-rat (Cryptomys damarensis)

, 2003
Subterranean mammals inhabit an environment that is normally devoid of light and are therefore deprived of photoperiodic information that can be used to time important life-history events.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

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

Frontiers 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.

Engineering a Multifunctional g‐C3N4/TiO2 Active Packaging Film With Enhanced Barrier and Photocatalytic Properties for Postharvest Preservation of Plum Fruit

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
The engineered g‐C3N4/TiO2@PVA active packaging film efficiently degrades exogenous ethylene under LED irradiation, effectively suppressing the endogenous ripening pathway of “Wushan” plums. Combined with enhanced barrier properties, this multifunctional film significantly delays the climacteric respiration peak and extends fruit shelf life.

Binding and dynamics of melatonin at the interface of phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol membranes.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The characterization of interactions between melatonin, one main ingredient of medicines regulating sleeping rhythms, and basic components of cellular plasma membranes (phospholipids, cholesterol, metal ions and water) is very important to elucidate the ...

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.
