Evidences associating pineal gland function with alterations in pigmentation [PDF]
, 1917 In the spring of 1915 we undertook to establish the influence of pineal gland substances upon growth and differentiation processes in tadpoles. The tad.poles employed were hatched in the laboratory and immediately placed upon a diet of pineal gland.

Is there any relationship between autism and pineal gland volume? [PDF]
Pol J Radiol, 2021 Purpose: Abnormalities in melatonin physiology and circadian rhythm are detected in patients with autism. Melatonin is produced predominantly in the pineal gland and the amount of melatonin released is proportional to the pineal gland volume.

Serotonin modulates melatonin synthesis as an autocrine neurotransmitter in the pineal gland. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021 Significance The pineal gland secretes melatonin at night mainly driven by adrenergic sympathetic inputs. Many other neurotransmitters are found in the pineal gland, suggesting potential fine modulation of melatonin release.

The pineal gland and reproduction [PDF]
Human Reproduction Update, 1996 The hormonal activity of the pineal gland is influenced by both the dark-light cycle and the seasonal cycle, causing it to play an important role in the neuroendocrine control of reproductive physiology. This is especially evident in seasonally breeding animals, in which reproductive function is clearly influenced by seasonal variations in the duration
