Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID 26679105
Year 2016
Title Evidence for possible role of melatonin in reducing oxidative stress in multiple sclerosis through its effect on SIRT1 and antioxidant enzymes

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Expression up-regulated
Risk type Disease risk
Result Melatonin significantly increased activities and mRNA levels of SIRT1.
Mechanism/Pathway It appears that the antioxidant status is affected in PBMCs from MS patients and melatonin could improve impaired antioxidant defense in MS through up egulation of SIRT1, MnSOD and catalase, which might be important in MS management.
