Bio Pineal Gland Model Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : JC-BE-6091
The Bio Pineal Gland Model from Jaincolab is a three-dimensional teaching model that depicts the location and function of the pineal gland, a small endocrine gland in the brain that regulates circadian rhythm through the hormone melatonin.
It is used in endocrinology, neuroscience, medical, and pharmacy courses to explain how light and darkness influence melatonin secretion and the sleep-wake cycle.
What the Concept States
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Location | Small endocrine gland located in the epithalamus, near the centre of the brain |
| Primary Hormone | Melatonin, synthesized from serotonin |
| Circadian Regulation | Melatonin secretion is regulated by light and darkness, with higher secretion occurring at night |
| Pinealocytes | Specialized cells within the pineal gland responsible for melatonin synthesis |
| Light Signal Pathway | Receives light-related signals from the retina via the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus |
| Clinical Relevance | Pineal gland dysfunction and melatonin imbalance are linked to sleep and circadian rhythm disorders |
Key Features
- Depicts the location and structure of the pineal gland within the brain
- Illustrates the melatonin pathway and its role in circadian rhythm regulation
- Links neuroanatomy with endocrinology and sleep physiology
- Durable, exam-oriented construction for repeated classroom use
- Compact benchtop format suitable for laboratories and lecture halls

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What does the Bio Pineal Gland Model demonstrate?
A. It demonstrates the location of the pineal gland in the brain and how it regulates circadian rhythm through melatonin secretion.
Q2. What hormone does the pineal gland produce?
A. The pineal gland produces melatonin, which is synthesized from serotonin.
Q3. How is melatonin secretion regulated?
A. Melatonin secretion is regulated by light and darkness, with the pineal gland releasing more melatonin at night.
Q4. Where is the pineal gland located?
A. The pineal gland is located in the epithalamus, near the centre of the brain.
Q5. Who uses this model?
A. Endocrinology, neuroscience, medical, nursing, and pharmacy students and faculty use it to study the pineal gland and circadian regulation.
