Crom &elatonin to &elanin

6he pineal gland secretes melatonin which activates the pititary gland

to release melanocyte stimlating hormone. $t is in the melanocytes

that melanin is prodced. ;orce

&elanin is a biopolymer and a neropeptide. $n the early 1D70s*researchers fond melanin to be an organic semicondctor +;cience*

vol 1>* E>EE +1D74,,. ;tdies revealed that melanin acted as an

electrical threshold switch* emitting a Fash of lightG

electrolminescenceGwhen it switched. 6hogh the ndings were

&elanin inFences neral activity and mediates the condction of

radiation* light* heat and "inetic energy. 9s sch* it is the sb-ect of

intense interest in biotech research and development* most notably in

organic electronics. ;orce

Blac" s"in is high in melatonin and it loo"s li"e this is an advantage for

both health and enlightenment:

(6he incidence of roentgenologically visible pineal gland calcication is

appro8imately twice as common in 9merican whites as in blac"s* a

dierence that is very stri"ing after age 40. #omparison of this nding

with reports in the literatre shows that the incidence of pineal gland

calcication is slightly higher in 9merican blac"s than in indigenos

9fricans* probably de to racial mi8tre among the 9merican blac"s we

stdied.) ;orce

$'ve come across some evidence that &elatonin can even act as a

radioprotective agent +to reverse the damage cased by the
