Peptide bioregulators inhibit apoptosis

Plain-language summary

Paraphrased from the published abstract below — not a verdict on whether anything works.

In this rat study, researchers examined effects of the peptide bioregulators epithalon and vilon on irradiation-induced apoptotic death of spleen lymphocytes. Both peptides were associated with inhibition of this programmed cell death following irradiation. The antiapoptotic effect was reported to be more pronounced for vilon than for epithalon, which the authors describe as supporting a tissue-specific effect of peptide bioregulators.

Abstract

The effects of peptide bioregulators epithalon and vilon on the dynamics of irradiation-induced apoptotic death of spleen lymphocytes in rats indicate that these agents inhibit physiologically programmed cell death. The antiapoptotic effect of vilon was more pronounced, which corroborates the concept on tissue-specific effect of peptide bioregulators.
