The influence of season, photoperiod, and pineal melatonin on immune function. [PDF]
In addition to the well-documented seasonal cycles of mating and birth, there are also significant seasonal cycles of illness and death among many animal populations.

A brief review about melatonin, a pineal hormone
Melatonin is a ubiquitous molecule in nature, being locally synthesized in several cells and tissues, besides being a hormone that is centrally produced in the pineal gland of vertebrates, particularly in mammals.

The aim of our study was to determine, using histological and stereological methods, whether photoperiodism has any impact on the effects that chronic (three-month long) exposure to LF-EMF (50Hz) has on morphological characteristics on rat's pineal ...

Molecular rhythms in the pineal gland
Recent findings have clarified the mechanisms regulating the night- and pineal-specific transcription of serotonin N-acetyltransferase, the rate-limiting enzyme in melatonin formation. Norepinephrine, acting via beta-adrenoceptors and cAMP at night, stimulates the cAMP response element binding protein, which turns on the transcription of N ...

The role of melatonin and the pineal gland in the photoperiodic control of reproduction and smoltification in Salmonid fish [PDF]
The timing of seasonal events in salmonids is thought to be controlled by endogenous circannual rhythm(s) which are entrained by the seasonally-changing daylength.
