The role of melatonin in pubertal development was assessed in male deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus bairdii) exposed to photoperiodic and social stimuli. Exogenous melatonin retarded puberty in males reared in a long photoperiod, but was without effect in males reared in short days. Melatonin did not retard pubertal development induced by exposure of short-day males to an adult female. These results suggest that pineal melatonin mediates photoperiodic, but not social, control of pubertal development.
在接受光周期和社会刺激的雄性鹿鼠（白耳林鼠）中评估了褪黑素在青春期发育中的作用。外源性褪黑素延缓了长光照周期饲养的雄性鹿鼠的青春期，但对短光照周期饲养的雄性鹿鼠没有影响。褪黑素并没有延缓短光照周期雄性鹿鼠与成年雌性接触所诱导的青春期发育。这些结果表明，松果体褪黑素介导了光周期对青春期发育的控制，但不介导社会因素对青春期发育的控制。
