Melatonin research has been experiencing hyper growth in the last two decades; this relates to its numerous physiological functions including anti-inflammation, oncostasis, circadian and endocrine rhythm regulation, and its potent antioxidant activity. Recently, a large number of studies have focused on the role of melatonin in the regeneration of cells or tissues after their partial loss. In this review, we discuss the recent findings on the molecular involvement of melatonin in the regeneration of various tissues including the nervous system, liver, bone, kidney, bladder, skin, and muscle, among others.
褪黑素研究在过去二十年中经历了高速发展;这与其众多的生理功能有关,包括抗炎、肿瘤抑制、调节昼夜节律和内分泌节律,以及其强大的抗氧化活性。最近,大量研究集中在褪黑素在细胞或组织部分损失后的再生中的作用。在这篇综述中,我们讨论了褪黑素在包括神经系统、肝脏、骨骼、肾脏、膀胱、皮肤和肌肉等各种组织再生中的分子作用的最新发现。
