Abstract：

Melatonin　is　a　well-known　potent　antioxidant　synthesized　in　the　pineal　gland.　It　affects　functions　of　many　organs　including　those　of　the　immune　system,　the　reproductive　tract,　the　thyroid　and　the　adrenals.　This　review　collates　evidence　from　many　research　laboratories　that　by　virtue　of　its　antioxidant　activity　melatonin　counteracts　brain　function　deterioration　induced　by　senescence.　Copyright　©　2005　S.　Karger　AG.
