Circadian clocks and breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Circadian clocks respond to environmental time cues to coordinate 24-hour oscillations in almost every tissue of the body. In the breast, circadian clocks regulate the rhythmic expression of numerous genes.

The role of agomelatine in appetite regulation and body weight in rats

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The hypothalamic nuclei play a central role in the synthesis of anorexigenic and orexigenic neuropeptides, which are regulated by peripheral hormones, like leptin and ghrelin. Melatonergic receptors (MT1/MT2) are prominently expressed in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus – an essential hub for appetite control – and in peripheral ...

The Role of Pineal Gland and Exogenous Melatonin on the Irradiation Stress Response of Suprarenal Gland

open access: yesBiomolecules & Biomedicine, 2006
Pineal gland has and antistressogenic role. Its main hormone, melatonin, has radio protective effect on endocrine and other dynamic tissues. In our previous study, we have shown that pinealectomy changes the behavior of suprarenal gland in totally ...

Cytoprotective effects of melatonin against amitriptyline-induced toxicity in isolated rat hepatocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Purpose: Amitriptyline, one of the commonly used tricyclic antidepressants, caused rare but severe hepatotoxicity in patients who received it continuously. Previous findings showed that the intermediate metabolites of amitriptyline produced by CYP450 are

The causative role of amyloidosis in the cardiac complications of Alzheimer's disease: a comprehensive systematic review

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of the bidirectional causative link between cerebral amyloid‐beta (Aβ) angiopathy and cardiovascular disease in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Common cardiovascular risk factors like microvascular thrombosis, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, hypertension and atherosclerosis lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and ...

Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

Ultaradian oscillation in expression of four melatonin receptor subtype genes in the pineal gland of the grass puffer, a semilunar-synchronized spawner, under constant darkness

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
Melatonin receptor gene expression as well as melatonin synthesis and secretion activities were examined in the pineal gland of the grass puffer, which exhibits unique lunar/tidal cycle-synchronized mass spawing: spawning occurs before high tide on the ...

Rythme nycthéméral de la sécrétion de mélatonine chez le dromadaire (Camelus dromedarius) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
La mélatonine, une hormone secrétée par la glande pinéale, a été dosée sur trois chamelles vivant dans le Sud de la France. Comme pour les autres espèces domestiques, les résultats montrent qu'il existe un rythme nycthéméral de la sécrétion de cette ...
