Oral Melatonin in Critically Ill Patients With COVID‐19: A Quasi‐Experimental Pragmatic Trial
ABSTRACT Melatonin has demonstrated antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and potential antiviral properties. Its therapeutic role in critically ill COVID‐19 patients admitted to intensive care was underexplored at the start of the pandemic. We conducted a quasi‐experimental, pragmatic study over 4 consecutive uninterrupted time periods alternating control ...

Inhibition of prostate cancer cell growth by human secreted PDZ domain-containing protein 2, a potential autocrine prostate tumor suppressor [PDF]
A possible role of the PDZ domain-containing protein 2 (PDZD2) in prostate tumorigenesis has been suggested. Besides, PDZD2 is posttranslationally cleaved by a caspase-dependent mechanism to form a secreted PDZ domain-containing protein 2 (sPDZD2) with ...

[MT1 melatonin receptors and their role in the oncostatic action of melatonin].
Melatonin, the main hormone produced by the pineal gland, strongly inhibits the growth of cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Some publications indicate that the addition of melatonin to culture medium slows the proliferation of some cancer cell lines.
