It seems clear that the pineal hormone, melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine), is involved in the reproductive behavior of several animal species including humans. Moreover, several data also support a role for 5-methoxytryptophol (ML), another pineal hormone, in the control of sexual processes.

In a study on the embryotoxicity of pineal indoles on developing chick embryos in vivo, the pineal indoles--namely, melatonin (MEL), methoxytryptamine (MTA) and methoxytryptophol (MTP)--were injected into the yolk sacs of the chick embryos through the air chambers of the

In the chick pineal gland, 5-methoxytryptophol and melatonin concentrations fluctuate in a rhythmic manner. These rhythms are circadian in nature persisting in constant darkness and have opposite phases. Acute exposure of chicks to white light (30 lux for 5, 10

Hydroxyindole-O-methyltransferase (HIOMT) catalyses the last step of all the 5-methoxyindoles synthesized in the pineal gland. The synthetic activity of this neuroendocrine structure is driven not only by noradrenaline but also by various neuropeptides. Recently we have established (1) that one
