Melatonin mediates monochromatic light–induced proliferation of T/B lymphocytes in the spleen via the membrane receptor or nuclear receptor

Our studies found that melatonin mediates the monochromatic light–induced lymphocyte proliferation in chickens. However, melatonin receptor subtypes contain membrane receptor (Mel1a/Mel1b/Mel1c) and nuclear receptor (Retinoic acid receptor–related orphan receptor [ROR] α/RORβ/RORγ) and are character...
