Journal ArticleDOI
Locally synthesized angiotensin modulates pineal melatonin generation.
Ovidiu Baltatu,Solange Castro Afeche,Sabrina Heloisa José dos Santos,Luciana Aparecida Campos,Roseli Barbosa,Lisete Compagno Michelini,Michael Bader,José Cipolla-Neto +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a local pineal RAS exerts a tonic modulation of indole synthesis by influencing the activity of TPH via AT1‐receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tryptophan hydroxylase is modulated by L-type calcium channels in the rat pineal gland
Roseli Barbosa,J H Scialfa,Ilza Campos Mingarini Terra,José Cipolla-Neto,Valérie Simonneaux,Solange Castro Afeche +5 more
TL;DR: It seems that the calcium influx through L-type high voltage-activated calcium channels is essential for the full activation of tryptophan hydroxylase leading to melatonin synthesis in the pineal gland.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of the blockade of high voltage-activated calcium channels on in vitro pineal melatonin synthesis.
Solange Castro Afeche,Roseli Barbosa,J H Scialfa,Ilza Campos Mingarini Terra,Antônio Carlos Cassola,José Cipolla-Neto +5 more
TL;DR: Calcium influx through L‐, N‐ or P/Q‐type of high voltage‐activated calcium channels is necessary for the full expression of the metabolic process leading to melatonin synthesis in the rat pineal glands, however, the mechanisms involved in this process are different for the L‐ or N‐ and N‐type calcium channels.
