" Therefore, our experiments demonstrate that the inhibition of the development of E(2)-induced prolactinoma by adequate dosage of melatonin may be related to the inhibitory effects of MLT on the secretion of PRL, but not to the antioxidative action of MLT."1.31[Inhibitory effects of melatonin on the development of 17-beta-estradiol induced prolactinoma in relation to plasma prolactin and peroxidative lipid contents].
