Melatonin in energy control: Circadian time‐giver and homeostatic monitor
Abstract Melatonin is a neurohormone synthesized from dietary tryptophan in various organs, including the pineal gland and the retina. In the pineal gland, melatonin is produced at night under the control of the master clock located in the suprachiasmatic nuclei of the hypothalamus.

Abstract Homeobox genes encode transcription factors that are widely known to control developmental processes. This is also the case in the pineal gland, a neuroendocrine brain structure devoted to nighttime synthesis of the hormone melatonin. Thus, in accordance with high prenatal gene expression, knockout studies have identified a specific set of ...

Inmunohistochemical methods showed that GABAergic cells, fibers, and terminals are widely distributed throughout the brain and spinal cord of the sturgeon. Comparison among sturgeon and other vertebrates, revealed numerous differences in the complexity of specific subsystems reflecting different trends followed by vertebrate brains during evolution ...
