Sleep Deprivation Alters T Cell Dynamics: Melatonin as a Restorative Agent
ABSTRACT Sleep is an essential physiological function regulated by circadian rhythm and homeostatic regulation for emotional and physical health. Conversely, sleep deprivation (SD) is associated with weakened immune system function and overall health, which potentially leads to chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes.

ABSTRACT Smith‐Magenis Syndrome (SMS) is an uncommon genetic disorder caused by microdeletions of chromosome 17p11.2 including the RAI1 gene, or loss‐of‐function mutations that directly affect RAI1. Due to the involvement of RAI1 in neurodevelopment, SMS leads to typical pathologic features in the behavioral and physical phenotype that must be ...

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

Abstract Aim Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are more likely to have sleep problems. Few studies have investigated the relationship between sleep problems and blood melatonin and ferritin levels. The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between sleep problems and morning serum melatonin and ferritin levels, and the ...

ABSTRACT Phytoene desaturase (PDS; EC 1.3.5.5) is a key enzyme of the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway, catalyzing the desaturation of phytoene, precursor of all carotenoids. In this study, several PDS‐knockout (PDS‐KO) transformants of the chlorophyte microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were generated using a reverse genetics strategy. Two single guide

Properties of MT2 in the massless limit
Although numerical methods are required to evaluate the stransverse mass, MT2, for general input momenta, non-numerical methods have been proposed for some special clases of input momenta. One special case, considered in this note, is the so-called `massless limit' in which all four daughter objects (comprising one invisible particle and one visible ...

ABSTRACT Early detection of herbicide‐induced stress is essential for optimising weed control, improving crop safety and advancing precision agriculture practices. While non‐destructive imaging technologies offer great potential for rapid stress diagnosis, direct comparisons of their performance across species, herbicides and application rates remain ...

Sleep quality and sleepiness in adults with multiple myeloma. Is melatonin a potential treatment?
Abstract Sleep disturbances significantly impact quality of life in cancer patients, yet remain poorly characterized in multiple myeloma (MM). This observational study aimed to characterize sleep profiles in MM patients and evaluate the therapeutic potential of exogenous melatonin.

Pineal and cortical melatonin receptors MT1 and MT2 are decreased in Alzheimer’s disease
The pineal hormone melatonin is involved in physiological transduction of temporal information from the light dark cycle to circadian and seasonal behavioural rhythms, as well as possessing neuroprotective properties.
