Behavioral Phenotype and Neuropsychological Profile of an Adult With Smith‐Magenis Syndrome due to a Previously Unreported RAI1 Mutation: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Smith‐Magenis Syndrome (SMS) is an uncommon genetic disorder caused by microdeletions of chromosome 17p11.2 including the RAI1 gene, or loss‐of‐function mutations that directly affect RAI1. Due to the involvement of RAI1 in neurodevelopment, SMS leads to typical pathologic features in the behavioral and physical phenotype that must be ...

Correlation between sleep problems and morning serum melatonin and ferritin levels in Japanese 5‐year‐old children with autism spectrum disorder

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences Reports, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Aim Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are more likely to have sleep problems. Few studies have investigated the relationship between sleep problems and blood melatonin and ferritin levels. The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between sleep problems and morning serum melatonin and ferritin levels, and the ...

Ultrastructural evidence of a secretory role for melatonin in the human parotid gland [PDF]

, 2015
In vivo animal studies show that pentagastrin, cholecystokinin and melatonin cause the secretion and synthesis of salivary proteins. Melatonin occurs in large amounts in the gut and is released into the blood on food intake.
