      Intraperitoneal melatonin is not neuroprotective in the G93ASOD1 transgenic mouse model of familial ALS and may exacerbate neurodegeneration 

      Dardiotis, Efthymios; Panayiotou, Elena; Feldman, M. L.; Hadjisavvas, Andreas; Malas, Stavros; Vonta, Filia; Hadjigeorgiou, Georgios M.; Kyriakou, Kyriakos; Kyriakides, Theodoros (2013)
      In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) reactive oxygen species and apoptosis are implicated in disease pathogenesis. Melatonin with its anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic properties is expected to ameliorate disease phenotype. ...
