Beneficial Effects of Melatonin on the In Vitro Maturation of Sheep Oocytes and Its Relation to Melatonin Receptors

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
(1) Background: The binding sites of melatonin, as a multifunctional molecule, have been identified in human, porcine, and bovine samples. However, the binding sites and mechanisms of melatonin have not been reported in sheep; (2) Methods: Cumulus–oocyte

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.

Circadian Pattern of Melatonin MT1 and MT2 Receptor Localization in the Rat Suprachiasmatic Nucleus

open access: yesJournal of Circadian Rhythms, 2015
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is the circadian pacemaker. The pineal hormone melatonin is involved in the regulation of circadian phase. As a part of the circadian system its synthesis and secretion is under SCN control.

Emerging pharmacotherapy of tinnitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Tinnitus, the perception of sound in the absence of an auditory stimulus, is perceived by about 1 in 10 adults, and for at least 1 in 100, tinnitus severely affects their quality of life.

The role of melatonin in diabetes: therapeutic implications

open access: yesArchives of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2015
Melatonin referred as the hormone of darkness is mainly secreted by pineal gland, its levels being elevated during night and low during the day. The effects of melatonin on insulin secretion are mediated through the melatonin receptors (MT1 and MT2).

Circadian rhythms and hormonal homeostasis: Pathophysiological implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Over recent years, a deeper comprehension of the molecular mechanisms that control biological clocks and circadian rhythms has been achieved. In fact, many studies have contributed to unravelling the importance of the molecular clock for the regulation ...

Chemical Metabolomics: Chemical Biology Tools for Advanced Metabolism Investigations

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The human metabolism has been investigated for several millennia. The metabolome is known for a high complexity due to a large number of different metabolites that are present at different concentrations. Metabolomics has been developed as a field to investigate the entire human metabolome and to elucidate disease development mechanisms.

Circadian and Metabolic Effects of Light: Implications in Weight Homeostasis and Health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Daily interactions between the hypothalamic circadian clock at the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and peripheral circadian oscillators regulate physiology and metabolism to set temporal variations in homeostatic regulation.

Nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and the chronobiology of mood: a new insight into the "neurotrophic hypothesis" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The light information pathways and their relationship with the body rhythms have generated a new insight into the neurobiology and the neurobehavioral sciences, as well as into the clinical approaches to human diseases associated with disruption of ...

Melatonin and retinoid orphan receptors: Demand for new interpretations after their exclusion as nuclear melatonin receptors

open access: yesMelatonin Research, 2018
The demonstrated incapability of the retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor-α (RORα) to bind melatonin inevitably requires consequences for interpreting numerous reports on actions of this protein as far as it was believed to be a nuclear ...
