Elevated intraocular pressure increases melatonin levels in the aqueous humour.

Alkozi Hanan, Sánchez-Naves Juan, de Lara Maria Jesús Perez, Carracedo Gonzalo, Fonseca Begoña, Martinez-Aguila Alejandro et al.

Acta OphthalmolSep 20160 citationsObservational Study

This study found that elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in humans and glaucoma mice correlates with significantly increased melatonin levels in the aqueous humor, suggesting a potential biomarker or role in glaucoma pathology.

2.

The role of dinucleoside polyphosphates on the ocular surface and other eye structures.

Carracedo Gonzalo, Crooke Almudena, Guzman-Aranguez Ana, Pérez de Lara Maria J, Martin-Gil Alba, Pintor Jesús

Prog Retin Eye ResJul 201614 citationsBasic Science

Dinucleoside polyphosphates (NpnN) are crucial for ocular health, influencing tear film, drug delivery, and intraocular fluid dynamics. Their altered levels may indicate disease (e.g., dry eye, glaucoma) and offer therapeutic potential.

3.

The use of mucoadhesive polymers to enhance the hypotensive effect of a melatonin analogue, 5-MCA-NAT, in rabbit eyes.

Andrés-Guerrero Vanessa, Molina-Martínez Irene T, Peral Assumpta, de las Heras Beatriz, Pintor Jesús, Herrero-Vanrell Rocío

Invest Ophthalmol Vis SciMar 201114 citationsBasic Science

This study found bioadhesive polymers significantly enhanced the IOP-lowering effect and duration of a melatonin analogue (5-MCA-NAT) in rabbits, offering a promising, well-tolerated strategy for glaucoma treatment.
