Melatonin is a neuroendochrine hormone regulating biological rhythms, secreted from the pituitary at night, in proportion to the duration of darkness. The actions of melatonin are mediated by specific membrane receptors, MT1 and MT2, expressed in the CNS (hippocampus, cerebellum, pars tuberalis of the pituitary gland) and in some peripheral organs (mammary epithelium, uterine myometrium, ovarian...read
