Journal ArticleDOI
Daily variation in antioxidant enzymes and lipid peroxidation in lungs of a tropical bird Perdicula asiatica: role of melatonin and nuclear receptor RORα.
R.K. Kharwar,Chandana Haldar +1 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that melatonin might be acting as an antioxidant for the free radical load of lung tissue of a tropical bird P. asiatica and its action might be via nuclear receptor RORα.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin improves humoral and cell-mediated immune responses of male golden hamster following stress induced by dexamethasone.
TL;DR: It is found that melatonin improved the effect of dexamethasone (synthetic glucocorticoid) induced immunosuppression of splenocytes and bone marrow GM-CFU along with increased production of serum IL-2, IgG and the receptor expression for melatonin and glucose in spleen that might be responsible for the proliferation of immune cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin as a possible antidote to UV radiation induced cutaneous damages and immune-suppression: An overview
Soumik Goswami,Chandana Haldar +1 more
TL;DR: The present review focuses and substantiates the work by different photo-biologists demonstrating the protective effects of melatonin and its metabolites against solar UVR - Melatonin as a possible antidote to UV radiation induced cutaneous damages and immune-suppression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anatomical and histological profile of bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue and localization of melatonin receptor types (Mel 1a and Mel 1b) in the lung-associated immune system of a tropical bird, Perdicula asiatica
TL;DR: A well-developed LAIS and region-specific distribution of melatonin receptors in the lung is demonstrated and evidence for a possible functional role for melatonin in the LAIS of birds is provided.
