Abstract:Abstract: Melatonin (MLT), as a class of indole-like hormones mainly synthesized in pinecones, has antioxi-dant function. It is also synthesized in the intestinal tract and participates in regulating physiological func-tions of the digestive tract. Herein, the sources and metabolism of melatonin in the digestive tract, and its regulation on the absorption and metabolism of fat, carbohydrate and amino acid were reviewed, which would provide reference for research on melatonin in regulating nutrient absorption and metabolism in the digestive tract epithelium.
