Maternal Melatonin Programs the Daily Pattern of Energy Metabolism in Adult Offspring

Abstract: BackgroundShift work was recently described as a factor that increases the risk of Type 2 diabetes mellitus. In addition, rats born to mothers subjected to a phase shift throughout pregnancy are glucose intolerant. However, the mechanism by which a phase shift transmits metabolic information to the offspring has not been determined. Among several endocrine secretions, phase shifts in the light/dark cycle were described as altering the circadian profile of melatonin production by the pineal gland. The present s… Show more

“…Emerging evidence indicates that melatonin is beneficial to reverse the adverse programming effects associated with compromised pregnancies, including diabetes, metabolic syndrome, maternal malnutrition, preeclampsia and the effects of dexamethasone exposure [14,22,23,24]. Despite evidence from human and experimental studies showing antihypertensive effects of melatonin on established hypertension [25,26,27], so far, few data are available regarding the protective effects of melatonin on programmed hypertension.…”

“…Od czasu wynalezienia przez Thomasa Edisona żarówki w 1879 roku systematycznie rośnie grupa osób zatrudnionych w warunkach pracy zmianowej (shift workers). Obecnie w krajach wysoce uprzemysłowionych, takich jak Polska, odsetek pracowników zmianowych wynosi ponad 20% [2,3]. Wyniki wielu badań wskazują na szkodliwość pracy zmianowej (PZ).…”

“…Zwiększone ryzyko wypadków w pracy, zaburzenia snu [4,5], częste wystę-powanie zmęczenia czy zjawisko jet lag są oczywistymi "powikłaniami " PZ [6]. Uważa się jednak, że PZ jest także czynnikiem ryzyka rozwoju: choroby wrzodowej [6], niektórych nowotworów (raka piersi, jajnika i prostaty) [7,8], a także otyłości, zespołu metabolicznego [2,3,9,10], cukrzycy typu 2 (T2DM) [2,11], dyslipidemii [10], nadciśnienia tętniczego [3,11] i choroby wieńcowej [3,12]. Dotychczas nie udowodniono, by PZ była przyczyną zwiększonej śmiertelności [6].…”
