The synthesis of melatonin in Xenopus retinas, chick and quail retinal cell cultures, and Y79 human retinoblastoma cells is stimulated by cAMP through a protein synthesis-dependent mechanism. In Y79 retinoblastoma cells, combined treatment with the RNA synthesis inhibitor camptothecin and agents that elevate cAMP, such as forskolin, causes a synergistic elevation of melatonin. Using two-dimensi...

Results 558 abstracts were identified, 51 full texts were obtained and 18 were analyzed. The genes polymorphisms with the evidence of association to occurrence or progression of IS were identified. Both the papers confirming or denying genetic background of IS were found. The genes presenting polymorphisms susceptible to be related to IS were as follows: estrogen receptors (ER), melatonin recep...

The arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT) enzymes have been found in a broad range of both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. The NAT enzymes catalyse the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl Co-enzyme A onto the terminal nitrogen of a range of arylamine, hydrazine and arylhydrazine compounds. Recently, several NAT structures have been reported from different prokaryotic sources including S...

Melatonin serves important functions in the promotion of growth and anti-stress regulation by efficient radical scavenging and regulation of antioxidant enzyme activity in various plants. To investigate its regulatory roles and metabolism pathways, the transcriptomic profile of overexpressing the ovine arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (oAANAT) gene, encoding the penultimate enzyme in melatoni...

The daily cycle of melatonin biosynthesis in mammals is regulated by AANAT (arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase; EC 2.3.1.87), making it an attractive target for therapeutic control of abnormal melatonin production in mood and sleep disorders. Drosophila melanogaster Dat (dopamine N-acetyltransferase) is an AANAT. Until the present study, no insect Dat structure had been solved, and, consequentl...

The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) is highly expressed in striatal spiny projection neurons and represents a therapeutic target for the treatment of psychotic symptoms. As reported previously [J Biol Chem 2009; 284:7606-7622], in this study PDE10A was seen to be additionally expressed in the pineal gland where the levels of PDE10A transcript display daily changes. As with the ...

The pigmentation of insects has served as an excellent model for the study of morphological trait evolution and developmental biology. The melanism (mln) mutant of the silkworm Bombyx mori is notable for its strong black coloration, phenotypic differences between larval and adult stages, and its widespread use in strain selection. Here, we report the genetic and molecular bases for the formatio...

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytrypamine) is the vertebrate hormone of the night: circulating levels at night are markedly higher than day levels. This increase is driven by precisely regulated increases in acetylation of serotonin in the pineal gland by arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (AANAT), the penultimate enzyme in the synthesis of melatonin. This unique essential role of AANAT in vertebr...
