Abstract: This study aimed to demonstrate the influence of the systemic administration of l-5-hydroxy-tryptophan (L-HTP) on the plasma levels of melatonin during the dark period in quails. Throughout daylight, the plasma levels of melatonin did not differ significantly, oscillating between 110.2 ± 15.8 pg.mL -1 and 157.4 ± 34.8 pg.mL , through the intracelomic route) administered at 18 hours lessened significantly the nocturnal increase of the plasma levels of melatonin (controls, 327.3 ± 20.1 and 315.8 ± 20.9 pg.mL -1 … Show more

“…This is similar to the observation of Huether et al with Trp orally administration [ 9 ]. In contrast, nocturnal concentration of MT was reduced after intramuscular injection of 5-HTP in quails [ 47 ]. This discrepancy may be species specific.…”
