As the world goes dark, this master switch tells our pineal gland to increase levels of the hormone melatonin in the bloodstream, sort of like a chemical lullaby.

天暗下来时，这个开关告诉我们松果增加血液中褪黑激素水平，有点像化学摇篮曲。

It alerts your pineal gland to start producing melatonin.

But with nightfall comes the release of sleepy melatonin hormones from the pineal gland.

As it gets later and dark outside, the pineal gland in your brain starts to release the hormone, and it binds to receptors deep in the brain to help usher you into dreamland.

当外面越来越晚，天黑时，大脑中松果开始释放荷尔蒙，它与大脑深处受结合，帮助引导进入梦乡。

And the master gland in your body is the pituitary, which produces many hormones that signal other glands — like the thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, and pineal glands — to make their own hormones.

要腺是垂，它产生许多荷尔蒙，向其他腺发出信号——比如甲状腺、甲状旁腺、肾上腺和松果腺——制造自己荷尔蒙。

Every once in a while, sudden soreness triggered a twinge of discomfort and shame. Whoever said the soul and the body met in the pineal gland was a fool. It's the asshole, stupid.

每隔一阵，阵痛就会触发强烈羞耻感。认为灵魂与肉交会点在松果75人，都是傻瓜。笨蛋。

As you go to sleep and finally begin to drift off, melatonin is secreted by the pineal gland which begins the sleep cycle, which happens multiple times through the night.

当准备睡觉并开始熟睡时，松果会分泌褪黑激素，松果开始了睡眠周期，整个晚上会发生多次。

A rare supratentorial pediatric tumor is a pinealoma, which forms in the region of the pineal gland.

还有一种罕见儿童脑幕上肿瘤：松果瘤，在松果中形成。

Pinealomas primarily emerge from the endocrine cells of the pineal gland, and they can be grade I through IV.

松果瘤初发于松果分泌细胞，可分为I到IV级。

These cells are found in glands, like the supratentorial pineal gland which is located just behind the third ventricle, or the infratentorial pituitary gland located near the front of the third ventricle.

这些细胞位于腺中，例如在第三脑室后脑幕上松果，或是靠近第三脑室前脑幕下垂腺。

As the sun rises, your pineal gland stops releasing melatonin.

随着太阳升起，松果停止分泌褪黑激素。

Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland in your brain.

褪黑素是由大脑松果分泌一种激素。

When the sun goes down, it is released by the pineal gland in the brain.

当太阳下山时，大脑中松果就会释放这种物质。

Darkness allows the pineal to release melatonin.

黑暗允许松果释放褪黑素。

As long as the mind is in the body, he believed, it is linked to the brain through a special brain organ which he called the pineal gland, where a constant interaction takes place between 'spirit' and 'matter.

他相信，只要思想在身里，它就会通过一种特殊大脑器官与大脑相连，他称之为松果，“精神”和“物质”之间不断发生相互作用。

Well, deep inside our brain we find the same structure, the pineal gland, which we also use to sense night and day, and tell us when it's time to sleep.

其实，在我们大脑深处， 我们发现了同样结构，松果，我们也用它来感知白天和夜晚，并告诉我们什么时候该睡觉。

And the studies indicate there may be the suggestion is there may be something somewhat different about our pineal gland, but you know, we're all good at different things.

研究表明， 我们松果可能有些不同，但知道， 我们每个人都有各自特长。

Hormones are made by specialised cells mostly found in the endocrine glands, the hypothalamus, testes and ovaries, and the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, adrenal and pineal glands.

激素由特化细胞产生，这些细胞要存在于分泌腺、下丘脑、睾丸和卵巢，以及甲状腺、副甲状腺、垂、肾上腺和松果中。

Melatonin is naturally produced by your brain, and it's released by a very small gland deep within your brain called the pineal gland.

褪黑激素由大脑自然产生，由大脑深处一个非常小腺释放， 称为松果。

All they way up here at the top of our head, like with the pineal gland, the pituitary gland.

一直往上到我们头顶部，比如松果和垂。
