Abstract:
Melatonin, the hormone synthesized mainly by the pineal gland, is a key member of the complex monoaminergic signaling system, and a circadian regulator with pleiotropic functions. This ubiquitary lipophilic and hydrophilic molecule acts both at cellular and subcellular level, exerting anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic activities, extremely important in the nervous system, given its high vulnerability to oxidative injury. Melatonin deprivation and the consecutive chronodisruption are associated with multiple behavioural abnormalities, psychiatric disorders and neurodegenerati

Abstract:
: Melatonin is a hormone produced in and secreted by the pineal gland. Besides its role in regulating circadian rhythms, melatonin has a wide range of protective functions in the central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The mechanisms underlying this protective function are associated with the regulatory effects of melatonin on related genes and proteins. In addition to messenger ribonucleic acid (RNA) that can be translated into protein, an increasing number of non-coding RNAs in the human body are proven to participate in many diseases.

Abstract:
The metabolism of the amino acid l-tryptophan is a highly regulated physiological process leading to the generation of several neuroactive compounds within the central nervous system. These include the aminergic neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), products of the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism (including 3-hydroxykynurenine, 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, quinolinic acid and kynurenic acid), the neurohormone melatonin, several neuroactive kynuramine metabolites of melatonin, and the trace amine tryptamine.

Abstract:
Secreted by the pineal gland to regulate the circadian rhythm, melatonin is a powerful antioxidant that has been used to combat oxidative stress in the central nervous system. Melatonin-based therapies have been shown to provide neuroprotective effects in the setting of ischemic stroke by mitigating neuroinflammation and accelerating brain tissue restoration. Melatonin treatment includes injection of exogenous melatonin, pineal gland grafting and melatonin-mediated stem cell therapy.

Abstract:
Copper is an extremely toxic metal in biological systems and thus, its availability to the system, must be effectively and efficiently controlled. Copper is vital for life, as it is essential for critical enzymes in biological systems. It is free copper in the biological systems that is toxic, as free copper induces free radical generation, which disrupts lipid membranes, interacts with DNA causing mutations, and eventually leads to cell death. Wilson’s disease is a inherited copper disease, which results in hepatolenticular disease. Copper is unable to be excreted, and thus accumulates, event

Abstract:
Parkinson’s disease, one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders associated with ageing, is characterised by abnormal and profound loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons. The cause of Parkinson’s disease is unknown, but epidemiological studies suggest an association with pesticides and other environmental toxins, and biochemical studies implicate oxidative damage and mitochondrial impairment, particularly at the level of complex I enzyme. Recently, rotenone, a commonly used organic pesticide and a classical inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I has been reported to reproduce the spec

Abstract:
Dopamine mechanisms in the central nervous system are important in the control of both normal and abnormal motor function. The recent observations in both animal and human studies, that melatonin, the principal hormone of the pineal gland, may have a role in the control of movement and the pathophysiology of movement disorders, have given rise to the concept that melatonin may have a modulatory influence on central dopaminergic neurotransmission. This study makes use of three animal behavioural models as well as a biochemical model of central dopaminergic function to further investigate the co

Abstract:
The duodenal mucosa is regularly exposed to acid, digestive enzymes and ingested noxious agents. It is thus critical to maintain a protective barrier to prevent the development of mucosal injury and inflammation, which are often observed in situations when barrier function is impaired. The rate of mucosal bicarbonate secretion, the regulation of epithelial paracellular permeability and motility are each key components of duodenal barrier function. The hormone melatonin is present in high levels in the gastrointestinal tract and it has been hypothesized that melatonin exerts protective properti

Abstract:
The benzodiazepine (BZD) class of drugs has proven to be a useful addition to therapeutic management of anxiety and sleep disorders in the adult population. However, after many years of experience with BZDs in elderly patients (≥65 years), a large body of evidence indicates that BZDs are no longer recommended for use in this segment of the population, except under special conditions. Several aging-related changes in physiology such as decreases in renal and hepatic function, altered central nervous system function and changes in body composition can lead to impaired excretion of drug, higher plasma levels and accumulation of these drugs in the body. Side effects such as sedation, dizziness, cognitive impairment, and diminished control of gait and balance functions place the elderly at greater risk of various adverse events, especially falls and fractures, compared to younger adults. Another class of drugs, known as Z-drugs is structurally dissimilar from the BZDs but able to bind to GABA<sub>A</sub>, receptors making them useful for management of insomnia. These drugs have also been found to pose significant hazards to the elderly and are also not recommended for use in elderly patients. Both of these classes of drugs are currently included in the AGS Beers Criteria<sup>®</sup> of potentially inappropriate medications for use in the elderly. Alternative pharmacologic approaches to managing these conditions include use of either serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors or buspirone for anxiety and the use of either low doses of doxepin, melatonin, or the melatonin agonist ramelteon for management of insomnia. Cognitive behavioral therapy and other relaxation techniques offer non-pharmacologic approaches to managing these conditions, thereby decreasing the need for prescribing BZDs or Z-drugs in the elderly.
