Melatonin (MLT) is widely used to treat sleep disorders although the underlying mechanism is still elusive. In mice, using wheel‐running detection, we found that exogenous MLT could completely recover the period length prolonged by N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDAR) impairment due to the injection of the NMDAR antagonist MK‐801, a preclinical model of psychosis. The analysis of the possible underlying mechanisms indicated that MLT could regulate the homeostatic state in the ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (VLPO) instead of the circadian process in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). In addition, our data showed that MK‐801 decreased Ca2+‐related CaMKII expression and CREB phosphorylation levels in the VLPO, and MLT could rescue these intracellular impairments but not NMDAR expression levels. Accordingly, Gcamp6 AAV virus was injected in‐vivo to further monitor intracellular Ca2+ levels in the VLPO, and MLT demonstrated a unique ability to increase Ca2+ fluorescence compared with MK‐801‐injected mice. Additionally, using the selective melatonin MT2 receptor antagonist 4‐phenyl‐2‐propionamidotetralin (4P‐PDOT), we discovered that the pharmacological effects of MLT upon NMDAR impairments were mediated by melatonin MT2 receptors. Using electroencephalography/electromyography (EEG/EMG) recordings, we observed that the latency to the first nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep episode was delayed by MK‐801, and MLT was able to recover this delay. In conclusion, exogenous MLT by acting upon melatonin MT2 receptors rescues sleep phase delayed by NMDAR impairment via increasing intracellular Ca2+ signaling in the VLPO, suggesting a regulatory role of the neurohormone on the homeostatic system.

On the basis of introducing application situation of information management in Gongchangling Mining Corporation, the advantage and disadvantage of B/S mode and C/S mode were analyzed. Respective characteristic of major developing technologies, such as JSP, ASP and PHP, had been compared. The feasibility of building office automation system based on B/S mode was discussed. The solving scheme of office automation system based B/S mode in Gongchangling Mining Corporation is put forward while retaining the original C/S system.
