The nocturnal pattern of Syrian hamster pineal melatonin synthesis is characterized by a 6-8 h lag period, followed by a late-night, short-duration peak in both N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity and melatonin content.

The involvement of the Harderian gland, atrophied eyes, and melatonin in the perception of photoperiodic changes has been studied in the mole rat, a fossorial blind mammal the thermoregulatory capacity of which is photoperiod-dependent. When transferred from a long photoperiod to a short one, mole r
