Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the complex catabolism of melatonin in the ram reproductive tract, particularly focusing on the presence of melatonin-catabolizing enzymes.
- It identifies that the enzymes indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO1 and IDO2) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) are present across various reproductive organs.
- MPO is found to be the primary enzyme, with significant expression in the testis and bulbourethral glands, indicating its potential importance in melatonin metabolism within these areas.
