Application of Khavinson Peptides
Epithalamin’s Effects on Aging and Cardiovascular Health
In a 15-year randomized comparative study involving elderly individuals with premature cardiovascular aging, the administration of the medicinal peptide preparation ‘Epithalamin’ was found to slow down the aging process and reduce mortality. By the end of this period, 40% of the control group and 66.7% of those treated with Epithalamin were alive. Long-term application of ‘Epithalamin’ also slowed the aging of the cardiovascular system, normalizing various vital parameters, including physical stamina, melatonin synthesis rhythm, and carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
Evaluating Treatment Efficiency through Various Parameters
Treatment efficiency was assessed by changes in parameters such as cardiovascular system functional age, threshold exercise power, cholesterol levels, glucose concentration after fasting, and plasma melatonin concentration. Various tests, such as oral glucose tolerance and bicycle ergometry, were used. The geroprotective effect of pineal gland peptides was further confirmed by the decreased mortality rate, as demonstrated by Kaplan-Meier survival curves.
Peptides of the Thymus in Immune Function Improvement
The peptide preparations of the thymus (such as ‘Thymalin’, peptides EW and KE) proved effective in treating numerous diseases and conditions related to reduced cell immunity and phagocytosis. These include situations arising from radiotherapy and chemotherapy in cancer patients, acute and chronic infections, arterial diseases, chronic liver or prostate issues, and certain forms of tuberculosis. The application of “Thymalin” notably improved immune functions.
‘Cortexin’ Peptide and Neuroprotective Effect
The peptide preparation ‘Cortexin’, extracted from the cerebral cortex, exhibits significant neuroprotective effects. It improves memory, stimulates repair processes, and hastens the restoration of cerebral functions after stress. It is effective in treating a variety of neurological conditions, with particularly high efficiency noted in elderly patients.
‘Retinalamin’: A Solution for Degenerative Diseases of the Retina
The peptide ‘Retinalamin’, extracted from the retina of animals, has shown remarkable clinical effects in treating various degenerative diseases of the retina, such as diabetic retinopathy and retinitis pigmentosa. Notably, it can restore the retina’s electrical activity, often correlating with improvements in vision.
‘Prostatilen’: A Treatment for Prostate Disorders
Another peptide preparation called ‘Prostatilen’, extracted from animal prostate glands, is effective in treating chronic prostatitis, adenoma, post-surgery complications, and age-related prostate dysfunctions.
Epigenetic Regulation and Overall Impact of Khavinson Peptides
Emphasizing the unique abilities of Khavinson peptides, they selectively bind to specific DNA sites in vitro, regulating gene expression and protein synthesis. These peptides influence differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis markers, and even increase telomere length in somatic cells. By influencing endocrine, nervous, and immune systems, these peptides potentially enhance lifespan, reduce tumor incidence in animals, and decrease human mortality.
