褪黑激素调节广泛的生理功能,对免疫系统具有多效性作用。尽管大量的报道暗示褪黑激素作为一种免疫调节化合物,它仍然是不清楚褪黑激素如何调节免疫。虽然一些作者认为褪黑激素是一种免疫刺激剂,但许多研究也描述了抗炎特性。本文综述的数据支持褪黑激素作为免疫缓冲剂的想法,在基础或免疫抑制条件下作为刺激剂,或在免疫反应加剧(如急性炎症)的情况下作为抗炎化合物。褪黑激素的多种功能在不同的免疫条件下,如感染,自身免疫,疫苗接种和免疫衰老的临床相关性也进行了审查。
Melatonin modulates a wide range of physiological functions with pleiotropic effects on the immune system. Despite the large number of reports implicating melatonin as an immunomodulatory compound, it still remains unclear how melatonin regulates immunity. While some authors argue that melatonin is an immunostimulant, many studies have also described anti-inflammatory properties. The data reviewed in this paper support the idea of melatonin as an immune buffer, acting as a stimulant under basal or immunosuppressive conditions or as an anti-inflammatory compound in the presence of exacerbated immune responses, such as acute inflammation. The clinical relevance of the multiple functions of melatonin under different immune conditions, such as infection, autoimmunity, vaccination and immunosenescence, is also reviewed.
