It is a complex network of interlocking genetic feedback loops involving clock genes (Clock, Bmal1), period genes (Per1, Per2, Per3), and cryptochrome genes (Cry1, Cry2)
to improve the indices of cardiovascular, endocrine, immune and nervous systems, homeostasis and metabolism. The researchers observed a 1.6-1.8 fold decreased mortality rate in the epithalamin-treated group, as well as decreased rates of: Coronary artery disease Hypertension Osteoarthritis Osteoporosis The researchers concluded that epithalamin may be beneficial for health maintenance and age-related pathology prevention in elderly subjects
