Serotonin modulates melatonin synthesis as an autocrine neurotransmitter in the pineal gland
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 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.

Pineal gland: structural variants and their role in neurological and psychiatric disorders [PDF]
Анналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2022 The pineal gland is a small and poorly studied neuroendocrine gland located in the epithalamus. There is growing interest in the pineal gland due to its role in regulating human biological rhythms, which is associated with melatonin production, and its ...

AAV vectors accumulate in the pineal gland after injections into the brain or spinal cord
Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2021 AAV vectors are being used extensively for gene-modifying therapies for neurological disorders. Here, we report the surprising discovery that injections of different AAVs into the brain, spinal cord, or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lead to robust ...

Pineal gland calcification confirmed by CT scan is associated with ischemic stroke [PDF]
Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2019 Background. Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the most common debilitating neurological disorder worldwide. The ischemic injury causes inflammation and oxidative stress, and leads to apoptosis, necrosis and activation of autophagal pathways

Transcriptome Analysis of Pineal Glands in the Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020 The pineal gland maintains the circadian rhythm in the body by secreting the hormone melatonin. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease. Pineal gland impairment in AD is widely observed, but no study to date has analyzed the
