Descrizione generale

6-Hydroxymelatonin (6-OHM) is a melatonin metabolite. It is produced in the liver by the action of cytochrome P450 enzyme as well as by photodegradation of melatonin. In the central nervous system, it exists as a sulfated form. 6-OHM is a partial melatonin receptor MT2 agonist.

Applicazioni

6-Hydroxymelatonin has been used as a melatonin derivative to test its protective effects in ultra violet B (UVB)-induced oxidative stress melanocytes and keratinocytes.

Azioni biochim/fisiol

6-Hydroxymelatonin (6-OHM) is an antioxidant with a free radical scavenging role. Like melatonin, it reduces the impact of UVB-induced oxidative stress in melanocytes. It also aids protection during iron (Fe2+)-induced neurotoxicity. 6-OHM effectively reduces lipid peroxidation and superoxide anion production induced by potassium cyanide (KCN).

We investigated the protective effects of melatonin and its metabolites: 6-hydroxymelatonin (6-OHM), N1-acetyl-N2-formyl-5-methoxykynuramine (AFMK), N-acetylserotonin (NAS), and 5-methoxytryptamine (5-MT) in human keratinocytes against a range of doses (25, 50, and 75 mJ/cm2) of ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation. There was significant

Melatonin (MLT), the pineal gland hormone involved in the regulation of circadian rhythms, shows characteristic diurnal variation. Its physiological role in humans is not clear. Exposure to high altitudes may disrupt the circadian rhythm and lead to various endocrine changes.

Melatonin is a hormone that is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 to its main primary metabolite 6-hydroxymelatonin. We therefore evaluated the utility of oral melatonin as a marker of hepatic CYP1A2 activity. Twenty-five milligrams of melatonin was given at

Night work is associated with disrupted circadian rhythms, fatigue, accidents, and chronic disease. Melatonin secretion helps regulate sleep and circadian rhythms. Melatonin, sleep disturbances, and symptoms (sleep, fatigue, mental) were compared among workers on permanent day, swing, and night shifts.
