Abstract

This paper reviews the results of long-term studies by the authors on the clinical efficacy of peptide bioregulators (Timalin, Thymogen, Vilon, Epithalamin, Prostatilen, Cortexin, and Retinalamin) for the prevention of diseases and treatment of people of all ages. Particular attention is paid to analysis of the use of peptide bioregulators as geroprotectors.
