Melatonin for COVID-19
11th treatment shown to reduce risk in December 2020, now with p = 0.0000002 from 18 studies.
Lower risk for mortality, ventilation, and recovery.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine treatments.
5,100+ studies for 112 treatments. c19early.org
In Silico study of melatonin, angomelatine, and ramelteon for SARS-CoV-2, predicting significant SARS-CoV-2 RBD and ACE2 binding with all three.
6 preclinical studies support the efficacy of melatonin for COVID-19:
Melatonin may restore altered redox homeostasis in COVID-196, modulates type III interferon responses and reduces inflammatory cytokine production in TLR3 receptor agonist stimulated viral inflammation while preserving tissue integrity3, and negatively regulates genes critical for viral entry in lung tissue, including reduced expression of FURIN and components of the CD147 complex, while potentially disrupting TMPRSS2/ACE2-mediated entry mechanisms2. Melatonin reduces oxidative stress, inhibits NET formation, and protects tissues through anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions7.
Kumar Yadalam et al., 25 Jan 2022, peer-reviewed, 14 authors.
In Silico studies are an important part of preclinical research, however results may be very different in vivo.
