Function:
1、Preventing pathological changes
Due to the ease with which MT can enter cells, it can serve as a task to protect nuclear DNA. If DNA is damaged, it may lead to cancer. If there is enough Mel in the blood, it is less likely to develop cancer.
2、Adjusting the circadian rhythm
3、Delayed aging
4、Regulatory effects on the central nervous system
Numerous clinical and experimental studies have shown that melatonin, as an endogenous neuroendocrine hormone, has direct and indirect physiological regulatory effects on the central nervous system, therapeutic effects on sleep disorders, depression, and mental disorders, and protective effects on nerve cells. For example, melatonin has a sedative effect, can also treat depression and mental illness, can protect nerves, can relieve pain, regulate hormones released by the hypothalamus, and so on.
5、Regulatory effects on the immune system
The neuroendocrine and immune systems are interconnected, and the immune system and its products can alter the function of the neuroendocrine. And neuroendocrine signals also affect immune function within the body. In the past decade, the regulatory effect of melatonin on the immune system has attracted widespread attention. Domestic and foreign studies have shown that it not only affects the growth and development of immune organs, but also regulates humoral and cellular immunity, as well as cytokines. For example, melatonin can regulate cellular and humoral immunity, as well as regulate the activity of various cytokines.
