મેલાટોનિન, known as N acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine is a multitasking hormone produced by the pineal gland and other organs of the body such as bone marrow, retina, and skin. The secretion of melatonin is regulated by the "master biological clock" of the hypothalamus, in the human brain. It plays a vital role in Cancer Treatment through different applications and may have therapeutic significance.

Melatonin has a primary oncostatic property on different types of cancers, as indicated by epidemiological applications. The underlying reasons for melatonin being an active cancer-fighting agent are its antioxidant properties, modulation by melatonin receptors, stimulation of apoptosis, regulation of tumour metabolism, inhibition of metastasis, and induction of epigenetic alteration.

Melatonin is an effective supplement for cancer treatment

• Research shows that melatonin induces a significant decrease in tumour size and promotes immunity against carcinogenic compounds.
• The melatonin hormone is involved in the redox processes of the cells, enhancing the augmentation of Natural Killer Cell activity and protecting receptors from the toxic side effects of કિમોચિકિત્સાઃ અને રેડિયોથેરાપી.
• મેલાટોનિન વિવિધ પ્રકારના કેન્સરની રોકથામ અને સારવાર માટે પણ ઉત્તમ ઉમેદવાર હોઈ શકે છે, જેમ કે ગેસ્ટ્રિક કેન્સર, પ્રોસ્ટેટ કેન્સર, સ્તન કેન્સર અને કોલોરેક્ટલ કેન્સર.

Research conducted on Melatonin with respect to preventing cancer

Studies have been conducted on Melatonin's effect on tumour growth and the side effects of cancer treatments.

• Melatonin is shown to inhibit tumour growth and cell proliferation in estrogen-responsive human સ્તન નો રોગ.
• Studies show that melatonin inhibits angiogenesis by decreasing the expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) receptor 2 and increasing the influence of insulin growth factor 1 and epidermal growth factor.
• Studies also show that the melatonin hormone participates in the activation of lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages, preventing tumor development, and fighting against potential carcinogens.
• Under various research, it is observed that melatonin can also be used to treat specificChemotherapyrepercussions and reduce the side effects of cancer treatments.

• Some research also shows that Melatonin's effects on breast cancer, out of all the other types of cancer, is the most significant because of the antiproliferative effect in breast cancer cells in vitro.
• Yet another research showed melatonin inhibited the growth of breast tumours in mice with its administration in the preliminary stages.
• The biomodification of cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy by the administration of melatonin confirms decreased toxicity and increased efficacy of cancer treatment in patients with poor clinical status and solid metastatic tumours.
• Controlled trials that examined the relationship between melatonin levels and neoplastic activity concluded that Melatonin, through its antiproliferative, antioxidative, and immunostimulatory actions, should be considered a naturally oncostatic agent.

Have any side effects been reported from taking Melatonin?

મેલાટોનિન એ એક ઉત્પાદન છે જે આહાર પૂરક તરીકે FDA દ્વારા નિયંત્રિત થાય છે. તે માત્ર સલામતી અથવા અસરકારકતા માટે નિર્ધારિત શરતો પર આપવામાં આવે છે. તે સુસ્તીનું કારણ બની શકે છે. દર્દીઓએ તેની અસરોથી પરિચિત ન થાય ત્યાં સુધી કોઈપણ ભારે સાધનો પર કામ ન કરવું જોઈએ. કેન્સરની સારવાર દરમિયાન તેને માત્ર સારવારના પૂરક સ્વરૂપ તરીકે સ્વીકારવામાં આવ્યું છે, કારણ કે હોર્મોન સેલ-રક્ષક હોવાનું માનવામાં આવે છે, જે એન્ટિઓક્સિડેટીવ પ્રક્રિયાઓ અને ઇમ્યુનોમોડ્યુલેશનમાં સામેલ છે.

In conclusion, melatonin may have multiple effects and plays a vital role in the apoptosis of cells. For research purposes, the biomodulation of cancer treatments by using Melatonincan confirms a reduction in toxicity and an increase in the efficacy of chemotherapy on patients.
