ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is prevalent in the elderly population and characterized by the intracellular accumulation of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), composed of tau proteins, and extracellular deposition of beta‐amyloid protein (Aβ). The present study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of melatonin on Aβ42‐induced AD‐like ...

Induction of dark-adaptive retinomotor movement (cell elongation) in teleost retinal cones by cyclic adenosine 3,5-monophosphate. [PDF]
In the teleost retina, the photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) undergo extensive movements (called retinomotor movements) in response to changes in light conditions and to an endogenous circadian rhythm.

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.

This study investigates the seasonal variations in fecal microbiota and metabolites of captive Yangtze finless porpoises (YFP) during breeding (B) and nonbreeding (NB) seasons using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and UHPLC–MS/MS analysis. Firmicutes were dominant in NB, while Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Fusobacteriota increased in B.

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

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 ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Gut dysbiosis is closely related to the development of sarcopenic obesity (SO). Melatonin (MLT) regulates gut microbiota and promotes the production of short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs). However, whether MLT affects SO through the gut microbiota and SCFAs remains unclear.
