Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin enhances cold tolerance in drought-primed wild-type and abscisic acid-deficient mutant barley
TL;DR: It is suggested that the exogenous melatonin application enhances the drought priming‐induced cold tolerance of barley by modulating subcellular antioxidant systems and ABA levels in barley.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin uptake through glucose transporters: a new target for melatonin inhibition of cancer.
David Hevia,Pedro Gonzalez-Menendez,Isabel Quiros-Gonzalez,Ana Miar,Aida Rodriguez-Garcia,Dun Xian Tan,Russel J. Reiter,Juan C. Mayo,Rosa M. Sainz +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that members of the SLC2/GLUT family glucose transporters have a central role in melatonin uptake and is the first time that a facilitated transport of melatonin is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin reduces oxidant damage and promotes mitochondrial respiration: implications for aging.
TL;DR: Recent observations documenting melatonin's ability to stimulate electron transport and ATP production in the inner‐mitochondrial membrane also has relevance for melatonin as an agent that could alter processes of aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orally administered melatonin reduces oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokines induced by amyloid-β peptide in rat brain: a comparative, in vivo study versus vitamin C and E
Sergio Rosales-Corral,Dun Xian Tan,Russel J. Reiter,Miguel Valdivia-Velázquez,Gabriela Martínez-Barboza,J. Pablo Acosta-Martínez,Genaro G. Ortiz +6 more
TL;DR: Melatonin exhibited a superior capacity to reduce the pro‐inflammatory response induced by fAβ, and was found to have immunomodulatory functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of melatonin in the regulation of autophagy and mitophagy: a review
Ana Coto-Montes,José Antonio Boga,Sergio Rosales-Corral,Lorena Fuentes-Broto,Dun Xian Tan,Russel J. Reiter +5 more
TL;DR: The present review focuses on data and the most recent advances related to the role of melatonin in health and disease, on autophagy activation in general, and on mitophagy in particular.
