Abstract | Melatonin, a neurohormone nocturnally produced by the pineal gland, is known to regulate the circadian rhythm. It has been recently reported that variants of melatonin receptors are associated with an increased risk of hyperglycemia and type 2 diabetes, suggesting that melatonin may be involved in the regulation of glucose homeostasis. Insulin is a key hormone that regulates circulating glucose levels and cellular metabolism after food intake in many tissues, including the brain. Although cells actively uptake glucose even during sleep and without food, little is known regarding the physiological effects of nocturnal melatonin on glucose homeostasis. Therefore, we presume the involvement of melatonin in the diurnal rhythm of glucose metabolism, independent of insulin action after food intake. In the present study, goldfish ( |
