Abstract

Chronic administration of the pineal hormone melatonin improves the cognitive activity and stimulates locomotion in rats, the effect being more pronounced in evening hours. On the background of melatonin action, local cerebrocranial trauma produces less pronounced behavioral and morphological disturbances, which more rapidly disappear after brain injury in the evening. The protective effect of the hormone is less pronounced in the morning hours.
