ADPKD is incurable, with half of the patients eventually needing renal replacement. Treatments for ADPKD patients are limited and new effective therapeutics are needed. Melatonin, a central metabolic regulator conserved across all life kingdoms, exhibits oncostatic and oncoprotective activity and no detected toxicity. Here, we used the Bicaudal C (BicC) Drosophila model of polycystic kidney disease to test the cyst-reducing potential of melatonin. Significant cyst reduction was found in the renal (Malpighian) tubules upon melatonin administration and suggest mechanistic sophistication. Similar to vertebrate PKD, the BicC fly PKD model responds to the antiproliferative drugs rapamycin and mimics of the second mitochondria-derived activator of caspases (Smac). Melatonin appears to be a new cyst-reducing molecule with attractive properties as a potential candidate for PKD treatment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules25225477","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,23]],"date-time":"2020-11-23T11:50:34Z","timestamp":1606132234000},"page":"5477","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Cyst Reduction by Melatonin in a Novel Drosophila Model of Polycystic Kidney Disease"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Cassandra","family":"Millet-Boureima","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Biology Department, Concordia University, Montreal, QC H4B 1R6, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roman","family":"Rozencwaig","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BH Bioscience, Montreal, QC H3W 2L2, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Felix","family":"Polyak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BH Bioscience, Montreal, QC H3W 2L2, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7122-6491","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chiara","family":"Gamberi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biology Department, Concordia University, Montreal, QC H4B 1R6, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"50","DOI":"10.1038\/s41572-018-0047-y","article-title":"Polycystic kidney disease","volume":"4","author":"Bergmann","year":"2018","journal-title":"Nat.
