| Description | Melatonien is ’n pineaalklierhormoon wat tydens die lig-donkersiklus gesekreteer word. Tot onlangs is melatonien nog as diewonderhormoon beskou wat ’n invloed het op die immuunsisteem, slaap, stresverligting, kankerprogressie en die kardiovaskulêre stelsel. This investigation was undertaken to determine the serum melatonin concentrations in coronary heart disease patients (CHD) with hypercholesterolaemia. Hypercholesterolaemia is a contributing factor to atherogenesis in CHD. Melatonin suppresses cholesterol synthesis. The preliminary results indicate that melatonin levels seem to be suppressed in CHD patients with hypercholesterolaemia. | |
