Melatonin is the most widely acting hormone in the body and is essential for the normal physiology of every cell in the organism. This book offers comprehensive coverage of both the mammalian pineal gland (including human) and its chief hormone melatonin. Evidence is presented to show that melatonin is an especially effective protector against free radical damage to DNA and therefore may be an important anti-cancer agent. Free radicals have also been implicated in ageing and several age-related diseases, and the actions of melatonin are also discussed relative to these conditions.
