Abstract:
:Melatonin was shown to occur in rat plasma and urine after pinealectomy by bioassay, radioimmunoassay, and thin-layer chromatography. Total daily excretion of melatonin in pinealectomized rats was about 20% of control. Light-dark rhythms of plasma melatonin levels and urinary excretion rates disappeared after pinealectomy.

ENDOCRINOLOGY文献大全abstract::The ghrelin receptor (GhrR) is known for its strong orexigenic effects in pharmacological doses and has long been considered as a promising target for the treatment of obesity. Several antagonists have been developed to decrease the orexigenic signaling, but none of these have been approved for the treatment of obesit...
