The study covered genetically determined lipid metabolism disorders due to oral intake of technogenic hyperchlorination drinkable water products. Findings are that overweight and obese children in a main group appeared to have serum chloroform level 2.3 times higher than that in a reference group. In oral intake of hyperchlorination drinkable water products, the study revealed main genes having polymorphism associated with endocrine disorders: overweight and obesity--APOE, PPARG, HTR2A, characterizing antioxidant system state--SOD2 and detoxication--SULTA. Polymorphism of candidate genes HTR2A and SOD2 was characterized by increased occurrence of mutant homo-- and heterozygous genotype, relative risk of pathologic allele presence in population exceeded the refrence group values. Probability of increased serum serotonin and lower Cu/Zn in children with mutant homozygous genotype HTR2A and SOD2 is 1.2-1.3 times higher than in those with heterozygous and normal homozygous genotypes.

Growth hormone (GH) secretion by the pituitary is regulated by stimulatory and inhibitory pathways such as growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin, respectively, being also modulated by different neurotransmitters acting at the hypothalamic/pituitary level. The pineal gland hormone melatonin regulates GH secretion in many mammals, including humans, although its role in modulating GH secretion has been debated. We describe the case of a young woman chronically taking melatonin for sleep disturbances, referring to her general practitioner for flushing that appeared just after starting melatonin intake.
