| 1 | The present study was undertaken to evaluate the possible regulatory role of melatonin in the vasopressin and oxytocin release in rats with myocardial infarction. | Melatonin | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
| 2 | In pinealectomized rats substituted with melatonin, pineal indole amine was seen to inhibit oxytocin release and stimulate vasopressin secretion. | Melatonin | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
| 3 | CONCLUSIONS: (i) CAL-induced myocardial infarction is the reason for increased hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system activity in rats; melatonin plays the role of inhibitory neuromodulator of vasopressin and oxytocin release in this state. | Melatonin | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
| 4 | (iii) Melatonin stimulates vasopressin (but decreases oxytocin) release in pinealectomized rats with myocardial infarction. | Melatonin | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
