Melatonin may play a role in modulation of bax and bcl-2 expression levels to protect rat peripheral blood lymphocytes from gamma irradiation-induced apoptosis.

TL;DR: It is suggested that melatonin in these doses may provide modulation of bax and bcl-2 expression as well as bax/b cl-2 ratio to protect rat peripheral blood lymphocytes from gamma irradiation-induced apoptosis.
Journal Article

Evaluation of Radio-Protective Effect of Melatonin on Whole Body Irradiation Induced Liver Tissue Damage

TL;DR: It is suggested that administration of melatonin before and after irradiation may reduce liver damage caused by gamma irradiation, and Hepatic MDA levels in irradiated rats that were treated with melatonin were significantly decreased, while GSH levels were significantly increased, when compared to either of the control groups or the melatonin only group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radio-protective effects of melatonin against irradiation-induced oxidative damage in rat peripheral blood

TL;DR: Pre-treatment with melatonin (10 mg/kg) is likely to be a threshold concentration for significant protection against lower dose of 2 Gy gamma irradiation compared to higher dose of 8 Gy, therefore it seems that radio-protective effects of melatonin are dose-dependent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Can melatonin help us in radiation oncology treatments

TL;DR: Melatonin has been shown to be both a direct free radical scavenger and an indirect antioxidant by stimulating antioxidant enzymes and suppressing prooxidative enzymes activity, and it seems that, in the future, melatonin may improve the therapeutic gain in radiation oncology treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Consequences of lethal-whole-body gamma radiation and possible ameliorative role of melatonin.

TL;DR: Melatonin pretreatment provides protection against radiation induced mortality, oxidative stress, and immune-suppression, and melatonin appeared to have another radioprotective role, suggesting that melatonin may reduce apoptosis through a caspase-3-mediated pathway by blocking caspasing-3 activity.
