Abstract
Day/night cycle controls neurogenesis; melatonin released from pineal gland in darkness stimulates intracellular Ca2+ dynamics thus decreasing proliferation of neural stem cells. In the daylight intracellular Ca2+ activity subsides, which stimulates neural stem cells division and increases generation of newborn neurones.
