Abstract

Abstract: Melatonin is mainly an endogenous indoleamine hormone with many physiological functions. Melatonin not only plays an important role in the treatment of sleep disorders, but also plays an important role in the treatment of nervous system diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and bone diseases. In this paper, the human body networks mechanisms and the clinical applications of melatonin were summarized to provide reference for exploring the focus and direction of further clinical application research.

Key words: melatonin, human body networks mechanisms, clinical applications
