Frage 6
Frage
Dopamine plays a role in Melatonin secretion by:
Antworten
-
Providing negative feedback to Melatonin formation.
-
Upregulating Melatonin receptors.
-
Enhancing the effects of Norepinephrine on Melatonin secretion.
-
Increasing in response to Melatonin binding with receptors.
Frage 7
Frage
5HT has which of the following functions and changes:
Antworten
-
It decreases Serotonin production.
-
It is decreased by AANAT to be converted to Melatonin.
-
It is produced only during the day.
