Glande pinéale
La glande pinéale ou épiphyse est une petite glande endocrine de l'épithalamus du cerveau des vertébrés. À partir du tryptophane, elle sécrète la mélatonine et joue donc, par l'intermédiaire de cette hormone, un rôle central dans la régulation des rythmes biologiques (veille/sommeil et saisonniers).
