Abstract

Highlights: [•] We identified the presence of MT1 and MT2 both at transcriptional and translational levels in bovine SCs. [•] Melatonin affects the expression of MT1 and MT2 mRNA in both time and dose-dependent manners. [•] Melatonin affects the expression of spermatogenesis-related genes in bovine SCs. [•] Melatonin affects the secretion function of bovine SCs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
