Melatonin as a therapeutic agent for alleviating endothelial dysfunction in cardiovascular diseases: Emphasis on oxidative stress
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Sep 16;167:115475. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115475. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe vascular endothelium is vital in maintaining cardiovascular health by regulating vascular permeability and tone, preventing thrombosis, and controlling vascular inflammation. However, when oxidative stress triggers endothelial dysfunction, it can lead to chronic cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This happens due to oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammatory responses, and reduced levels of nitric oxide. These factors cause damage to endothelial cells, leading to the acceleration of CVD progr...

Melatonin as a potential treatment for septic cardiomyopathy
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Aug 22;166:115305. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115305. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSeptic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is a common complication of sepsis contributing to high mortality rates. Its pathophysiology involves complex factors, including inflammatory cytokines, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and immune dysregulation. Despite extensive research, no effective pharmacological agent has been established for sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy. Melatonin, a hormone with diverse functions in the body, has emerged as a potential agent for SCM through its anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-a...

Exogenous melatonin ameliorates steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head by modulating ferroptosis through GDF15-mediated signaling
CONCLUSIONS: We proposed that MT attenuated SONFH by inhibiting ferroptosis through the regulation of GDF15, and supplementation with exogenous MT might be a promising method for the treatment of SONFH.PMID:37400902 | DOI:10.1186/s13287-023-03371-y

PM2.5 contributed to pulmonary epithelial senescence and ferroptosis by regulating USP3-SIRT3-P53 axis
In conclusion, targeting USP3-SIRT3-P53 axis may be a novel therapeutic strategy against PM2.5-induced pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis by decreasing pulmonary epithelial senescence and ferroptosis.PMID:37348684 | DOI:10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.06.017

Melatonin alleviates doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity via inhibiting oxidative stress, pyroptosis and apoptosis by activating Sirt1/Nrf2 pathway
In conclusion, our studies suggest that the activation of the Sirt1/Nrf2 pathway is the underlying mechanism behind melatonin's ability to curtail oxidative stress, pyroptosis, and apoptosis in Dox-induced cardiomyopathy. These promising results demonstrated the potential application of melatonin as a treatment for doxorubicin-induced cardiac injury.PMID:36965257 | DOI:10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114591

Fight Aging! Newsletter, January 2nd 2023
In conclusion, circulating monocytes in older adults exhibit increased expression of activation, adhesion, and migration markers, but decreased expression of co-inhibitory molecules. MERTK Inhibition Increases Bone Density via Increased Osteoblast Activity https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2022/12/mertk-inhibition-increases-bone-density-via-increased-osteoblast-activity/ Bone density results from the balance of constant activity on the part of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, the former building bone, the latter breaking it down. With advancing age, the balance of activity shifts to favor osteoclasts, prod...

Why Do Anti-Amyloid Beta Antibodies not work? Time to reconceptualize Dementia Pathophysiology by incorporating astrocyte melatonergic pathway desynchronization from amyloid-beta production
This article highlights the importance of the lost synchronization of Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and yin yang 1 (YY1) induction of β-site amyloid precursor proteincleaving enzyme (BACE)1 induction and amyloid-β production with the melatonergic pathway. Emphasis is placed on the importance of released glia melatonin and autocrine effects in limiting the duration of amyloid-β production and paracrine melatonin's anti-inflammatory effects in neurons, including the suppression of hyperphosphorylated tau. Many of the broader bodies of data on dementia pathophysiology, including the role of the gut microbiome, gut permea...

Therapeutic potential of melatonin and its derivatives in aging and neurodegenerative diseases
Biogerontology. 2022 Dec 22. doi: 10.1007/s10522-022-10006-x. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAging is associated with increasing impairments in brain homeostasis and represents the main risk factor across most neurodegenerative disorders. Melatonin, a neuroendocrine hormone that regulates mammalian chronobiology and endocrine functions is well known for its antioxidant potential, exhibiting both cytoprotective and chronobiotic abilities. Age-related decline of melatonin disrupting mitochondrial homeostasis and cytosolic DNA-mediated inflammatory reactions in neurons is a major contributory factor in the emergence of neurolo...
