Melatonin has been shown to enhance tear secretion associated with dinucleotide diadenosine tetraphosphate. This study investigated the isolated action of melatonin and its analogs, agomelatine, N-butanoyl-2-(2-methoxy-6H-isoindolo[2,1-a]indol-11-yl) ethanamine (IIK7), and 5-methoxycarbonylamino-N-cetyltryptamine (5-MCA-NAT) (10 µl at 100 µM), on tear secretion when
Experiments in the late nineties showed an inverse relationship in the eye levels of melatonin and dopamine, thereby constituting an example of eye parameters that are prone to circadian variations. The underlying mechanisms are not known but these relevant molecules

Often, glaucoma presents with elevated eye hydrostatic pressure, which is regulated by endogenous melatonin. Phenylephrine increases cytoplasmic [Ca2+ ], via α1 -adrenoceptor activation, that is detrimental in glaucoma. The aims of this study were (a) to elucidate the role of
