🧬Telomerase ActivatorLengthens telomeres via telomerase activation. May also regulate melatonin production and circadian rhythm, and modulate antioxidant enzyme activity.
Anisimov et al. (Biogerontology): Extends lifespan in multiple animal models by 10-15% via telomerase activation and melatonin regulation.
preclinicalKhavinson et al. demonstrate Epitalon activates telomerase catalytic subunit (hTERT) expression in human fetal fibroblasts, extending replicative lifespan by 10 population doublings.
preclinicalComprehensive 25-year review of Epitalon's antioxidant, neuroprotective, antimutagenic, and anti-cancer properties across in vitro, in vivo, and in silico models.
preclinicalKorkushko et al.: Epithalamin administration normalizes melatonin production and circadian rhythm in elderly patients, improving sleep and immune function.
moderateResearch-only. Telomerase activation carries theoretical cancer risk. Long-term safety unknown.
