Mean age of tumour detection

upin rats1

1 study
  1. Polypeptide pineal extract increases mean age of tumour detection in rats (811 and 868 days in experimental groups versus 697 days in controls).

    “the mean age of tumour detection in the control group was 697 days and in experimental groups it was 811 and 868 days, respectively.”

Gestation and delivery

upin rats1

1 study
  1. Polypeptide pineal extract induces gestation and delivery in rats (4 of 16 animals developed gestation and delivered).

    “a second mating period resulted in gestation development in four out of 16 animals and deliveries, accordingly.”

Persistent disturbances in estral function

downin rats1

1 study
  1. Polypeptide pineal extract decreases persistent disturbances in estral function in rats (7% of experimental animals versus 38% of controls).

    “38% of control rats exhibited persistent disturbances in estral function (constant estrus or repeated pseudogestations), whereas these disorders were observed in 7% of experimental animals only.”

1 study
  1. Polypeptide pineal extract extends lifespan in rats (+10% and +25% at 0.1 and 0.5 mg per animal daily, respectively).

    “increased their lifespan by 10 and 25%, respectively, as compared with controls.”
