A biphasic effect of estradiol on serotonin metabolism in rat pineal organ cultures
Physiological amounts of estradiol (1 nM) significantly increased serotonin, conversion to melatonin and 5-methoxytryptophol by rat pineal glands in organ culture whereas larger, pharmacological, doses (i.e. 1000 nM) impaired it significantly. The stimulatory but not the inhibitory effect of estradi...
