An investigation into the novel effects of melatonin treatment on differentiated C2C12 myotubes in the absence and presence of pathology
… stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Owing to Melatonin’s (MEL) ability to localise within the mitochondria and act as a potent antioxidant, it has been proposed as an alternative means of treatment for oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and injury-related damage to skeletal muscle. …

A study of the differentiation and dedifferentiation of three human melanoma cell lines
Pigment formation in melanocytes is the end-point of a series of biochemical reactions involving numerous melanocyte-specific proteins including, inter alia, the enzymes tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1 ), tyrosinase-related protein-2 (TRP-2) and the melanosomal protein encoded by …
