  • Title: [Effects of melatonin on oxygen-dependent processes].
    Author: Zinchuk VV, Glutkin SV, Shul'ga EV, Guliaĭ IÉ.
    Journal: Eksp Klin Farmakol; 2013; 76(2):32-6. PubMed ID: 23631282.
    Abstract:
    Original and literature data on melatonin effects on various oxygen-dependent processes, in particular, blood oxygen transport and the free-radical reactions, are analyzed. Melatonin influences the oxygen binding properties of hemoglobin by changing hemoglobin oxygen affinity and optimizes the process of tissue oxygenation and prooxidant--antioxidant balance by reducing oxygen participation in free-radical processes.
