Current opinions on the potential role of orphan nuclear retinoid receptors of the ROR/RZR subfamily in regulatory activities of the pineal gland hormone melatonin are reviewed. The mechanisms of receptor--DNA interactions and known coactivators, tissue peculiarities of the expression of different receptor isoforms, and its regulation are described ...

The pineal gland and its major product melatonin have a key role in conveying the environmental photoperiodic stimuli that impinge upon the mammalian reproductive axis. The brain, especially the medial preoptic and suprachiasmatic areas are thought to be the main sites of melatonin's neuroendocrine activity.

Functionality of Melatonin Receptors: Internalization
2022The main step of classical desensitization of a receptor, by mean of its disappearance from the plasma membrane, is its internalization. This is a key factor in the regulation of agonist-mediated signaling pathways, as it most of the time stops the activation of the receptor. Internalization is thus important to evaluate, as a complementary information

Melatonin receptors and ligands
2000The goal of the article is to provide a clearer understanding of how melatonin and its related analogs interact with melatonin receptors with the hope of developing important tools and agents of significant clinical and scientific importance. The review provides a compilation of the currently published melatonergic ligands and their relative affinities

Alternative Ligands at Melatonin Receptors
2022Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a neurohormone that possesses a wide range of biological effects. Most of the main recognized effects of this hormone in mammals are due to its interaction with two G protein-coupled receptors, MT1 and MT2. Ligand-binding studies have been based on the use of its radioligand analog, 2[125I]-iodomelatonin, a ...

Investigational melatonin receptor agonists
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 2010Melatonin is a major chronobiological regulator involved in circadian phasing, sleep, and numerous other functions including cyto-/neuroprotection, immune modulation, and energy metabolism. The suitability of melatonin as a drug is limited because of its short half-life.

Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents, 1999
The hormone melatonin is released following a circardian rhythm with highest levels during the subjective night. It regulates a variety of physiological and neuroendocrine functions through activation of G-protein-coupled membrane receptors in target tissues.

Melatonin and Melatonin Receptors in Neuroprotection
2016Melatonin (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.

Docking studies for melatonin receptors
Expert Opinion on Drug Discovery, 2017Melatonin is a neurohormone that controls many relevant physiological processes beyond the control of circadian rhythms. Melatonin's actions are carried out by two main types of melatonin receptors; MT1 and MT2. These receptors are important, and not just because of the biological actions of its natural agonist; but also, because melatonin analogues ...
