pubmed-article:7629693pubmed:abstractTextTo monitor pineal function in the Djungarian hamster (Phodopus sungorus), we measured the urinary excretion of the melatonin metabolite 6-sulphatoxymelatonin (aMT6s) at 3-hr intervals by radioimmunoassay. Hamsters maintained in either long photoperiod (LP, LD 16:8) or short photoperiod (SP, LD 8:16) showed marked daily rhythms in aMT6s excretion, with elevated levels during the dark phase. In both photoperiods, we found large interindividual differences, mainly in the amplitude of the signal. However, the amplitude as well as the duration of nocturnal aMT6s excretion was higher in SP than in LP. Light exposure at night (180 mW/m2, 30 min) caused a decrease in aMT6s excretion, indicating that the pineal gland is the major source of urinary aMT6s. Moreover, there was a significant correlation between nocturnal pineal/plasma melatonin contents and 24-hr aMT6s excretion. We conclude that, measurements of aMT6s provide a valid and quantitative index of pineal melatonin synthesis in this hamster species. As an advantage in determining pineal melatonin contents, this approach will allow noninvasive long-term studies of individual animals under varying environmental conditions.lld:pubmed
