Résumé

La sérotonine et sa dérivée, la mélatonine, hormones de la glande pinéale, ont les effets tr⪻s significatifs mais opposés sur l'activité de la somatomédine. L'addition de la sérotomine au sérum normal a fait augmenter l'activité de la somatomédine de 0.952±0.029 unités/ml à 1.265±0.073 unités/ml (p<0.005) tandis que l'addition de la mélatonine l'a abaissée à 0.652±0.091 (p<0.005).
