“…The obtained results demonstrated a slower cognitive decline and less diminution of autonomy in those who received phototherapy and melatonin. According to Baydas et al [51], melatonin has a modulatory effect on the expression of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) in brain areas involved with cognitive function. Melatonin may be involved in structural remodeling of synaptic connections during memory and learning processes.…”

“…Alternatively, the effects of melatonin may be through the direct modulation of memory formation circuits. Melatonin has shown to play an important role in structural remodeling of synaptic connections during memory and learning processes [45]. Other researches also demonstrated the ability of melatonin to modulate neuronal firing in the hippocampus and other brain regions [46, 47].…”

“…Some studies have provided evidence for its direct effect. For instance, a research has suggested that melatonin could be involved in structural remodelling of synaptic connections during memory and learning processes (Baydas et al 2002). Other research has also suggested that melatonin may influence memory formation in the hippocampus (El Sherif et al 2003).…”
