Common Wisdom: Melatonin and sleep Melatonin & sleep: Clinical Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine, MLT), synthesized by the pineal gland, has been reported to have hypnotic effects in humans, although results are still controversial (Brzezinski et al., 2005; Buscemi et al., 2006). Controversial studies on the role of melatonin in sleep, even if there is a concordance on the soporific effect and sleep-inducing effects of melatonin. Melatonin & sleep: Animal Animal studies have demonstrated that MLT reduces time to sleep onset and increases both NREMS and REMS (Holmes and Sugden, 1982; Mirmiran and Pevet, 1986), both effects being blocked by the GABAA receptor antagonists flumazenil and picrotoxin (Wang et al., 2003a).

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) risk among insomnia patients is approximately 3 fold that of good sleepers. Furthermore, poor sleep quality is associated with faster cognitive decline and may be an early marker of cognitive decline in mid life. Improvement of sleep may be critically important for maintaining or enhancing cognitive function in patients with MCI or AD. Current hypnotic medications (benzodiazepines and benzodiazepines-like) are associated with cognitive and memory impairments, increased risk of falls, accidents and dependency. Melatonin receptors agonists are safe and effective drugs for primary insomnia and circadian rhythm sleep disorders and are potentially useful for cognition and sleep in. Piromelatine is a novel investigational MT1\MT2 and 5HT1A\D receptors agonist developed for primary and co-morbid insomnia. In Phase-I studies it demonstrated good oral bioavailability (Elimination half-life 2.8±1.4 hours), good safety & tolerability profile across a wide dose range and provided the first indication for beneficial effects on sleep maintenance. In a Phase-II study in insomnia patients, piromelatine demonstrated significant improvements in sleep maintenance based on objective assessments (polysomnography recorded wake after sleep onset, sleep efficiency and total sleep time) and good safety profile with no detrimental effects on next-day psychomotor performance and memory.

E-mail: [email protected] Submitted: 01.10.2016 Abstract Accepted: 02.12.2016 Introduction: Melatonin is produced in various organs, but its preferentially nocturnal synthesis and release by the pineal gland is decisive for its chronobiological actions. Keywords: The short half-life of circulating melatonin has been reason for developing synthetic Agomelatine melatonergic agonists. With regard to age- and disease-related dysfunction of the Circadian melatonergic system, treatment with melatonin or its synthetic analogs may be used for Melatonin alleviating health problems with a respective etiology. This review addresses limitations Kynuramine arising from drug-specific metabolism and disregarded chronobiological rules. Ramelteon Metabolism: Differences are illustrated by comparing the metabolism of melatonin and two approved synthetic melatonergic agonists, ramelteon and agomelatine. Apart from © 2016. Focus on Sciences hydroxylation and dealkylation reactions, melatonin can be converted to methoxylated kynuramines, a route absent in the two synthetic drugs. An unsual property is present in the ramelteon metabolite M-II, which still displays melatonergic activity, but attains 30 to 100 times higher levels than the parent compound. Two double-hydroxylated agomelatine metabolites may be involved in sometimes occurring hepatotoxicity. Chronobiology of Melatonergic Drugs: Sleep latency facilitation and readjustment of circadian rhythms require only short actions.

  • A Crosstalk Between Melatonin and Taste-Receptors' Signaling Tunes Quinine-Induced Gut Hormone Secretion in Mice

Here, tested on two common mouse strains, C3H/lbg and C57BL/6J, it exerted a different effect. While quinine reduced weight gain in C3H/lbg mice, C57BL/6J were unaffected by the bitter molecule. Among the differences between the two strains, C57BL/6J present a blunted Melatonin production. In this study, we investigate if endogenous Melatonin is playing any role in the different response of C57BL/6J mice to quinine. The effect of dietary supplementation with Melatonin as well as of endogenous gastrointestinal and pineal produced Melatonin was investigated by supplementing quinine diet with pure Melatonin, L-Tryptophan or by reversion of light/dark cycle, respectively. The consumption of Melatonin reverts the phenotype and makes C57BL/6J mice sensitive to quinine. Similarly, quinine potency in C3H/ Ibg mice augments upon supplementation with exogenous Melatonin or upon increase of Melatonin endogenous levels. In vivo, as well as in in vitro cell cultures, Melatonin Receptor modulation inhibits quinine dependent secretion of Ghrelin, while potentiates quinine dependent secretion of Cholecystokinin.

The examination will be conducted in Swedish. Faculty examiner: Professor Bodil Ohlsson (Lunds Universitet). Abstract Söderquist, F. 2019. Melatonin in the gastrointestinal tract. Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1616. 63 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0814-2. Melatonin is recognised as the pineal hormone regulating sleep and circadian rhythm. It has also been identified in peripheral tissues (mainly in animals) and thought to display a variety of actions, including anti-inflammatory properties, regulation of gastrointestinal (GI) functions, glucose homeostasis and beneficial effects in different tumour types. Patients with irritable bowel disorder commonly exhibit psychiatric co-morbidity and disturbances of the gut-brain axis have been proposed to play a role in these disorders. The focus of this thesis was to study melatonin and melatonin receptors in the normal human GI tract, the pancreas and small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours. The thesis also explores the complex relationship between GI symptoms and underlying psychiatric traits in the context of elevated levels of peripheral melatonin during waking hours. In paper I-II, tissue samples from the normal human GI tract and pancreas and tumour tissue from small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours were analysed for expression of melatonin and melatonin receptors using immunohistochemistry.
