Melatonin (MT) is one of the hormones secreted by the pineal gland of the brain. Melatonin belongs to indole heterocyclic compounds, whose chemical name is N-acetyl-5methoxytryptamine, and is also known as pineal gland hormone, melatonin, melatonin. After melatonin is synthesized and stored in the pineal gland, sympathetic excitation innervates the pineal cells to release melatonin. The secretion of melatonin has a clear circadian rhythm, with daytime secretion inhibited and nighttime secretion active. Melatonin can inhibit the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, so that the gonadotropin-releasing hormone, gonadotropin, luteinizing hormone and follicular estrogen content are reduced, and can act directly on the gonads to reduce the content of androgens, estrogens, and progesterone. In addition, MT has powerful neuroendocrine immunomodulatory activity and free radical scavenging antioxidant capacity, and may become a new antiviral treatment method and approach.MT is ultimately metabolized in the liver, and damage to hepatocytes can affect the level of MT in the body.
