Abstract
Melatonin prevents abdominal aortic aneurysm formation thorough anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects. The preventive effect of this powerful antioxidant can be attributed to its ability to balance oxidant-antioxidant status, inhibit neutrophil infiltration, and regulate inflammatory mediators, suggesting a future role in the treatment and prevention of abdominal aortic aneurysms.
