General tips:For obtaining a higher solubility , please warm the tube at 37 ℃ and shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while.Stock solution can be stored below -20℃ for several months.
We recommend that you prepare and use the solution on the same day. However, if the test schedule requires, the stock solutions can be prepared in advance, and the stock solution must be sealed and stored below -20℃. In general, the stock solution can be kept for several months.
Before use, we recommend that you leave the vial at room temperature for at least an hour before opening it.
About Packaging:1. The packaging of the product may be reversed during transportation, cause the high purity compounds to adhere to the neck or cap of the vial.Take the vail out of its packaging and shake gently until the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial.
2. For liquid products, please centrifuge at 500xg to gather the liquid to the bottom of the vial.
3. Try to avoid loss or contamination during the experiment.
Shipping Condition:Packaging according to customer requirements(5mg, 10mg, 20mg and more). Ship via FedEx, DHL, UPS, EMS or other couriers with RT, or blue ice upon request.

Biological Activity of Melatonin
Description | Melatonin, a hormone produced in the brain, is a potent melatonin receptor activator, and possesses important anti-cancer, antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties, it can reduce lead toxicity in vivo and in vitro. Melatonin may be useful as a pharmacological agent to protect against hepatic metabolic diseases due to its ability to regulate expression of miR-23a. |
Targets | Caspase | ERK | CDK |
In vivo |
Melatonin ameliorates ER stress-mediated hepatic steatosis through miR-23a in the liver.[Pubmed: 25660457] Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2015 Mar 13;458(3):462-9. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induces hepatic steatosis and inflammation in the liver. Although Melatonin ameliorates ER stress-target genes, it remains unknown whether Melatonin protects against hepatic steatosis as well as inflammation through regulation of miRNA. MicroRNAs have been identified as pivotal regulators in the field of gene regulation and their dysfunctions are a common feature in a variety of metabolic diseases. Especially, among miRNAs, miR-23a has been shown to regulate ER stress. Melatonin reduces lead levels in blood, brain and bone and increases lead excretion in rats subjected to subacute lead treatment.[Pubmed: 25601058] Toxicol Lett. 2015 Mar 4;233(2):78-83. Melatonin, a hormone known for its effects on free radical scavenging and antioxidant activity, can reduce lead toxicity in vivo and in vitro.We examined the effects of Melatonin on lead bio-distribution. Melatonin in patients with cancer receiving chemotherapy: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.[Pubmed: 25503168] Anticancer Res. 2014 Dec;34(12):7327-37. The MIRCIT trial was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of advanced Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). |
Protocol of Melatonin
Cell Research |
Melatonin potentiates cisplatin-induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in human lung adenocarcinoma cells.[Pubmed: 25580987] Cell Prolif. 2015 Feb;48(1):67-77. Melatonin produces anti-cancer effects via several mechanisms, including by induction of apoptosis. In this way, it has been shown to be of use, in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs, for cancer treatment. The study described here has evaluated effects of Melatonin on cytotoxicity, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest induced with the chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin, in human lung adenocarcinoma cisplatin-sensitive cell line (SK-LU-1), which previously had only limit data. |
Animal Research |
Melatonin ameliorates dexamethasone-induced inhibitory effects on the proliferation of cultured progenitor cells obtained from adult rat hippocampus.[Pubmed: 25305353] J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol. 2015 Jan;145:38-48. Glucocorticoids, hormones that are released in response to stress, induce neuronal cell damage. The hippocampus is a primary target of glucocorticoids in the brain, the effects of which include the suppression of cell proliferation and diminished neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus. Our previous study found that Melatonin, synthesized primarily in the pineal, pretreatment prevented the negative effects of dexamethasone, the glucocorticoid receptor agonist, on behavior and neurogenesis in rat hippocampus. |
