科学的进步往往伴随着新技术和新方法的引入。在过去的15年里，几种检测体液中褪黑素(MEL)水平的方法的发展是人类松果体研究的一个里程碑。下面，演示文稿将简要概述自那时以来人们对MEL在人类体内的分泌模式的了解。它特别关注血液MEL水平的节律性昼夜节律和亚昼夜变化，以及随着年龄增长而发生的血液MEL浓度的变化。它还考虑了这些变化对人性性成熟的可能影响。
Frequently, progress in science goes together with the introduction of new techniques and new methods. During the last one and a half decades the development of several methods for assaying melatonin (MEL) levels in body fluids was such a landmark for human pineal research. The following, presentation will give a brief survey of what has been learned about MEL's secretion patterns in humans since then. It particularly concerns rhythmic circadian and infradian changes in blood MEL levels as well as alterations of blood MEL concentrations that occur with aging. It also considers the possible effects of these changes on human sexual maturation.
