Abstract

Melatonin entrainment of suprachiasmatic nucleus-regulating circadian rhythms is mediated by MT1 and MT2 receptors. Melatonin also has neuroprotective and mitochondrial activating effects, suggesting it may affect neurodevelopment. We studied melatonin's pharmacological effects on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) neuropathology. Deciduous tooth-derived stem cells from children with ASD were used to model neurodevelopmental defects and differentiated into dopaminergic neurons (ASD-DNs) with or without melatonin. Without melatonin, ASD-DNs had reduced neurite outgrowth, mitochondrial dysfunction, lower mitochondrial Ca
