Respuesta
  • Acting as an ultradian hormone.
  • Acting as an antioxidant.
  • Acting upon melatonin receptors.
  • Acting upon adrenergic receptors.
  • Acting to protect mitochondrial and nuclear DNA.

Respuesta
  • 1aBA
  • Ba1A
  • AB1a
  • 1aAB

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
Light of which of the following wavelength criteria will not inhibit melatonin
Respuesta
  • Under 530 nm.
  • Over 480 nm.
  • Over 530 nm.
  • Under 480 nm.

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
Dopamine plays a role in Melatonin secretion by:
Respuesta
  • 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.

Pregunta 7

Pregunta
5HT has which of the following functions and changes:
Respuesta
  • It decreases Serotonin production.
  • It is decreased by AANAT to be converted to Melatonin.
  • It is produced only during the day.
  • Its production leads to increased sympathetic activity and receptor activation on the pineal gland, ultimately leading to decreased Melatonin synthesis.
  • Dopamine activation of the D4 receptor heteromeres decreases 5HT in the morning.

Pregunta 8

Pregunta
The Pineal Gland is located outside of the blood brain barrier.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 9

Pregunta
Melatonin affects the following hormones by:
Respuesta
  • Increasing LH.
  • Decreasing FSH.
  • Decreasing Leptin.
