    Glossary Melatonin Receptors

    proteins that bind melatonin to regulate sleep and other functions

    Melatonin receptors are proteins found in various parts of the body, including the brain and skin, that bind to the hormone melatonin. These receptors help regulate sleep-wake cycles, mood, and even hair growth by influencing cellular activities in response to melatonin.
