Apolipoprotein E influences melatonin biosynthesis by regulating NAT and MAOA expression in C6 cells.

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies have demonstrated that apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype and melatonin are closely associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the relationship between ApoE genotype and melatonin remains unclear. Recently, we reported that cultured rat cortical astrocytes and glioma C6 cells synthesize melatonin. In the current study, we investigated the effect of ApoE genotype on melatonin biosynthesis....
