•Genetic analysis reveals role of melatonin in ADHD symptom severity
79% Informative
Study led by Hamamatsu University School of Medicine found that genetic variations affecting melatonin production could contribute to ADHD symptoms, particularly through disrupted sleep patterns.
Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland in response to darkness, helping regulate sleep-wake cycles.
For children with ADHD, one common challenge is establishing a stable sleep routine.
The researchers proposed that encouraging healthy sleep habits that increase melatonin production in children with ADHD could help lessen symptoms by potentially reducing levels of interleukin-6.
Future research could explore the therapeutic potential of melatonin regulation.
This might include interventions that promote circadian rhythm alignment, such as scheduled sleep routines or low-dose melatonin supplements.
