Melatonin Transmits Photoperiodic Signals through the MT1 Melatonin Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2009
Melatonin transmits photoperiodic signals that regulate reproduction. Two melatonin receptors (MT1 and MT2) have been cloned in mammals and additional melatonin binding sites suggested, but the receptor that mediates the effects of melatonin on the photoperiodic gonadal response has not yet been identified. We therefore investigated in mice whether and

Endogenous melatonin partial metabolic clearance as a potential endogenous marker of CYP1A2 activity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) exhibits substantial interindividual variability, necessitating appropriate phenotyping strategies for personalized pharmacotherapy. This study evaluated endogenous melatonin partial metabolic clearance (CLm(MEL)), calculated from urinary 6‐hydroxymelatonin (6‐O‐MEL) excretion and plasma melatonin (MEL) exposure, as a ...

Serotonin, how to find it... [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a monoamine neurotransmitter. Biochemically derived from tryptophan, serotonin is primarily found in the gastrointestinal tract, platelets, and in the central nervous system (CNS) of animals, including humans ...

Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.

Growing Teeth in the Dark: Circadian Rhythmic Tooth Growth Regulated by Melatonin?

open access: yesDental Hypotheses, 2011
Introduction: Melatonin is re-leased from the pineal gland and its release is regulated by the light. It is a well-known hormone for circadian rhythm that affects various activities of our body.

Agomelatine is superior to melatonin in pain suppression: An experimental study

open access: yesNeurological Sciences and Neurophysiology, 2020
Objective: Agomelatine is a synthetic analog of melatonin with selective agonist action on melatonin MT1 and MT2 receptors and antagonistic effect on serotonin 5HT2c receptors. Similar to melatonin, it also has antinociceptive properties.

PharmVar GeneFocus: CYP1A2—Clinical Impact, Genetic Variation, and Updated Nomenclature

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The Pharmacogene Variation Consortium (PharmVar) provides nomenclature for the highly polymorphic human CYP1A2 gene. CYP1A2 plays a crucial role in the biotransformation of several commonly used drugs, including antipsychotics, antidepressants, anxiolytics, and methylxanthines.

Ambient technology in epilepsy clinical practice

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The utilization of large language model‐based artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of neurology has gained attention as a viable tool to enhance and assist providers with processes ranging from scheduling patients to providing preliminary interpretations of testing results, pending orders, and documenting encounters. Epileptologists could
