Abstract
The activity of 0.01-1 microM of melatonin on depolarization-induced 45Ca2+ influx by hypothalamic synaptosomes of rats killed at late evening (2000 h) depended on melatonin preincubation time, exhibiting an early (10 min) stimulation of uptake and an inhibition after 30 min of incubation. Both stimulatory and inhibitory effects were maximal at 2000 h and tended to a minimum at 2400 h, exhibiting intermediate values at 400 h. At 1000 h, only inhibitory effects of melatonin (1 microM) on Ca2+ uptake were found.Entities:
