The primary purpose of the study was to develop cross-sectional evidence concerning whether or not lower melatonin production levels are associated with increased oxidative DNA guanine damage. Because the results of this study are supportive, confirmatory studies are warranted, followed by prospective chemoprevention studies of melatonin supplementation. Adjuvant cancer treatment studies have not identified any serious melatonin toxicities. High-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI MS/MS) was used to ...
