Melatonin is a hormone synthesized in the pineal gland (and to a lesser extent in the retina) by a precursor of an amino acid, L-tryptophan. Melatonin secretion depends on the day and night, as well as the seasons. Melatonin has a dual function: on the one hand, it is an element of the circadian rhythm, on the other - it plays the role of a signal informing the body about the time of day and year. As a result, melatonin has hypnotic (informs the body that it's time to sleep) and soporific properties (increases the feeling of drowsiness in the evening).
The pineal hormone is released into the bloodstream, transported to every organ in the body and then inactivated in the liver. Melatonin is synthesized only at night or in the dark phase of the daily light-dark cycle.
