Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" In communicating hydrocephalus, the function of the tela choroidae could be impaired by infectious or inflammatory processes; while in schizophrenia a physiologic disorder of cerebrospinal fluid production due to a melatonin deficiency may result in dilated ventricles."7.67The pathophysiology of enlarged ventricles in normal pressure communicating hydrocephalus and schizophrenia: a possible therapeutic role for melatonin. ( Maurizi, CP, 1987)
" In communicating hydrocephalus, the function of the tela choroidae could be impaired by infectious or inflammatory processes; while in schizophrenia a physiologic disorder of cerebrospinal fluid production due to a melatonin deficiency may result in dilated ventricles."3.67The pathophysiology of enlarged ventricles in normal pressure communicating hydrocephalus and schizophrenia: a possible therapeutic role for melatonin. ( Maurizi, CP, 1987)
"Hydrocephalus is defined as an incapacitating neurological disorder characterized by ventricular enlargement in children, but the effects of melatonin on this hydrocephalus have not yet been fully elucidated."1.48Melatonin Attenuates Histopathological Changes in the Hippocampus of Infantile Rats with Kaolin-Induced Hydrocephalus. ( Baka, M; Turgut, M; Uyanıkgil, Y, 2018)
"Hydrocephalus is a developmental disorder causing abnormally collected cerebrospinal fluid within the cerebral ventricles."1.46Effects of Melatonin on the Cerebellum of Infant Rat Following Kaolin-Induced Hydrocephalus: a Histochemical and Immunohistochemical Study. ( Baka, M; Turgut, M; Uyanıkgil, Y, 2017)
"Hydrocephalus is a disabling disease for children, but current data concerning the effects of melatonin on ventricular enlargement are still limited."1.34Melatonin ameliorates blood-brain barrier permeability, glutathione, and nitric oxide levels in the choroid plexus of the infantile rats with kaolin-induced hydrocephalus. ( Erdogan, S; Ergin, K; Serter, M; Turgut, M, 2007)
"Studies of communicating hydrocephalus and chemical analysis of ventricular melatonin give evidence that CSF recirculates through the tela choroidae back into the ventricles."1.28Recirculation of cerebrospinal fluid through the tela choroidae is why high levels of melatonin can be found in the lateral ventricles. ( Maurizi, CP, 1991)
"Melatonin values were higher in patients aged under 10 years than over 20 years in the absence of meningitis or tumor in the pineal region."1.28[The studies of melatonin values in the cerebrospinal fluid of hydrocephalic patients]. ( Eghwrudjakpor, PO; Kurisaka, M; Miyake, H; Mori, K, 1991)
"Rarely, hydrocephalus may trigger true precocious puberty, a syndrome easily differentiated from pseudoprecocious puberty by endocrinologic tests."1.27Neuroendocrine aspects of pineal tumors. ( Fetell, MR; Stein, BM, 1986)
"Computerized tomographic scans showed obstructive hydrocephalus from a cystic lesion in the pineal region."1.27Effect of pinealectomy on serum melatonin, luteinizing hormone and prolactin: a case report. ( Brown, GM; Chik, CL; Talalla, A, 1985)
"Melatonin was extracted from human sera, ventricular and lumbar cerebrospinal fluids taken within an hour from 25 patients undergoing neurosurgical operations such as ventricular shunts and craniotomy."1.26Melatonin concentrations in human serum, ventricular and lumbar cerebrospinal fluids as an index of the secretory pathway of the pineal gland.
