Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Melatonin prevents HOCl –mediated MPO heme destruction through multiple pathways.
PloS one  •  2015  |  View Paper
Here we demonstrate that HOCl alters metaphase‐II mouse oocyte microtubules and chromosomal (CH) alignment which can be prevented by melatonin.
Journal of pineal research  •  2012  |  View Paper
The well-known antioxidant melatonin interacted with the oxidant and significantly protected cells during HOCl exposure, diminishing its cytotoxic effects and reducing protein carbonyl generation.
Mutation research  •  2004  |  View Paper
Melatonin could also prevent the oxidation of 5-thio-2-nitrobenzoic acid by HOCl.
Free radical biology & medicine  •  1996  |  View Paper
Melatonin also inhibits myeloperoxidase, the enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of chloride to HOCl.
Journal of pineal research  •  2010  |  View Paper
It has been found that melatonin reacts rapidly with hypochlorous acid in phosphate-buffered, ethanol-water solutions to produce 2-hydroxymelatonin.
