Is feireog bheag inchríneach í an fhaireog phinéalach (tugtar uirthi freisin; 'an ball pinéalach', 'an eipifís cheirbreach' , agus 'an eipifís' nó 'an tríú súil') a bhíonn suite san inchinn veirteabrach. Táirgeann sí meileatoinin, hormón arb é a n-éifeacht modhnú ar bpatrúin codalta/múscailte agus ar bhfeidhmeanna fótaithréimhseacha an ainmhí.^[1]^[2] Tá cruth an bhuaircín aici (sin é an fáth a thugtar an t-ainm 'pinéalach' di), agus tá sí suite gearr de lár na hinchinne, idir an dá leathsféar, fillte in eitre san áit ina cheanglaíonn dhá leath den talamas le chéile.

PMID 15649736. “Exogenous melatonin has acute sleepiness-inducing and temperature-lowering effects during 'biological daytime', and when suitably timed (it is most effective around dusk and dawn) it will shift the phase of the human circadian clock (sleep, endogenous melatonin, core body temperature, cortisol) to earlier (advance phase shift) or later (delay phase shift) times.”
