In situ hybridization on paraffin sections of the rat brain showed that synthetic peptides Vilon, Epithalon, and Cortagen modulated the expression of IL-2 gene in vivo in cells of some hypothalamic structures depending on the terms and routes of administration.
In this study, Epitalon was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Epitalon.
