Optimizing Brain Biology Through Near-Infrared-Induced Mitochondrial Melatonin Synthesis

May 9th 2026 11:34pm EDT

STORY AT-A-GLANCE Near-infrared (NIR) light absorbed by mitochondria triggers local melatonin production, creating an antioxidant cascade that offers neuroprotective benefits independent of the sleep-related melatonin system The brain is especially vulnerable to oxidative damage due to high energy demands, fragile cell membranes, limited cleanup mechanisms, and age-related decline in melatonin levels Two coordinated defense systems […]
