Molecular endocrinology of melatonin: Receptor sites in brain and peripheral organs

This paper reviews the data indicating the occurrence of membrane and cytaplasmic melatonin binding sites in selected brain areas, e.g. medial basal hypothalamus and pineal gland, and in peripheral organs like the uterus, ovary and liver. Evidence is also presented that the neuroendocrine responsive...
