Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of melatonin on the serum asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) levels and the expressions of vaspin, visfatin, dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH), and signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT-3) for evaluation of endothelial function and inflammation in the hypercholesterolemic rats."8.31The effects of melatonin against atherosclerosis-induced endothelial dysfunction and inflammation in hypercholesterolemic rats. ( Aslan, G; İlhan, N; Sahin, K; Sahna, E; Sezgin, D; Tuzcu, M, 2023)
"We have reported recently that nocturnal melatonin levels are reduced in a subgroup of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS)."7.69The relationship between melatonin secretion and serum cholesterol in patients with multiple sclerosis. ( Awerbuch, GI; Sandyk, R, 1994)
" Thus, the antihyperlipemic effect of melatonin, which was first discovered in hypercholesterolemia produced by short- or long-term administration of glucocorticoids, has now been proved to be rather universal and not simply anti-glucocorticoidal."5.27Effects of melatonin on genetic hypercholesterolemia in rats. ( Aoyama, H; Mori, N; Mori, W, 1988)

"The effect of melatonin on cholesterol metabolism in the rat was investigated in the dietary and hypothyroid models of hypercholesterolemia."3.69Effect of melatonin on the maintenance of cholesterol homeostasis in the rat. ( Chan, TY; Tang, PL, 1995)

"Melatonin treatment increased the expression of ATP-binding cassette subfamily A member 1 (ABCA1), which reduced cholesterol accumulation and cholesterol-induced apoptosis."1.62Melatonin activates ABCA1 via the BiP/NRF1 pathway to suppress high-cholesterol-induced apoptosis of mesenchymal stem cells.
