0.100 AlteredExpression group BEFREE Five lines of evidence suggest that melatonin works via epigenetic processes: (1) melatonin influences transcriptional activity of nuclear receptors (ERalpha, GR and RAR) involved in the regulation of breast cancer cell growth; (2) melatonin down-regulates the expression of genes responsible for the local synthesis or activation of estrogens including aromatase, an effect which may be mediated by methylation of the CYP19 gene or deacetylation of CYP19 histones; (3) melatonin inhibits telomerase activity and expression induced by either natural estrogens or xenoestrogens; (4) melatonin modulates the cell cycle through the inhibition of cyclin D1 expression; (5) melatonin influences circadian rhythm disturbances dependent on alterations of the light/dark cycle (i.e., light at night) with the subsequent deregulation of PER2 which acts as a tumor suppressor gene. 18592373 2009
