Abstract
Exposure to light reduces the ability of the rat pineal gland to synthesize melatonin and decreases the weight of the gland. When the sympathetic nerves to the pineal gland are cut, light no longer has an effect on melatonin synthesis or pineal weight. The response of the gland does not require that the gonads or the pituitary gland be present.
摘要
暴露在光线下会降低大鼠松果体合成褪黑素的能力，并减轻松果体的重量。当切断松果体的交感神经时，光对褪黑素合成或松果体重量不再有影响。腺体的反应不需要性腺或垂体的存在。
