Melatonin is a ubiquitous indolamine, largely investigated for its key role in the regulation of
several physiological processes in both animals and plants. In the last century, it was …

Endogenous melatonin is synthesized from tryptophan via 5-hydroxytryptamine. It is
considered an indoleamine from a biochemical point of view because the melatonin …

Insomnia is a serious worldwide health threat, affecting nearly one third of the general
population. Melatonin has been reported to improve sleep efficiency and it was found that …

Abstract Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine), a well-known animal hormone, is also
involved in plant development and abiotic stress responses. In this study, it is shown that …

Melatonin, a derivative of tryptophan, was first detected in plant species in 1995 and it has
been shown to be a diverse regulator during plant growth and development, and in stress …

The pineal gland is a unique organ that synthesizes melatonin as the signaling molecule of
natural photoperiodic environment and as a potent neuronal protective antioxidant. An intact …

Abstract Melatonin (N‐acetyl‐5‐methoxytryptamine) has been implicated in abiotic and
biotic stress tolerance in plants. However, information on the effects of melatonin in cold …

Melatonin is a phylogenetically ancient molecule. It is ubiquitously present in almost all
organisms from primitive photosynthetic bacteria to humans. Its original primary function is …

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) plays important role in multiple plant
developmental processes and stress responses. We investigated the possible mediatory …

Foods are natural sources of substances that may exert crucial effects on the nervous
system in humans. Some of these substances are the neurotransmitters (NTs) acetylcholine …
