Melatonin receptors are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) which bind melatonin. [1] Three types of melatonin receptors have been cloned.The MT 1 (or Mel 1A or MTNR1A) and MT 2 (or Mel 1B or MTNR1B) receptor subtypes are present in humans and other mammals, [2] while an additional melatonin receptor subtype MT 3 (or Mel 1C or MTNR1C) has been identified in amphibia and birds.

The melatonin receptors are G protein-coupled receptors and are expressed in various tissues of the body. There are two subtypes of the receptor in humans, melatonin receptor 1 (MT 1) and melatonin receptor 2 (MT 2). [2] Melatonin and melatonin receptor agonists, on market or in clinical trials, all bind to and activate both receptor types. [1]

N-Acetylserotonin (NAS), also known as normelatonin, is a naturally occurring chemical intermediate in the endogenous production of melatonin from serotonin. [1] [2] It also has biological activity in its own right, including acting as a melatonin receptor agonist, an agonist of the TrkB, and having antioxidant effects.
Other drugs act by binding to a receptor and mimicking the normal neurotransmitter. Such drugs are called receptor agonists. An example of a receptor agonist is morphine, an opiate that mimics effects of the endogenous neurotransmitter β-endorphin to relieve pain. Other drugs interfere with the deactivation of a neurotransmitter after it has ...
The anterior pituitary (also called the adenohypophysis or pars anterior) is a major organ of the endocrine system.The anterior pituitary is the glandular, anterior lobe that together with the (posterior pituitary, or the neurohypophysis) makes up the pituitary gland (hypophysis) which, in humans, is located at the base of the brain, protruding off the bottom of the hypothalamus.
