In SAMP mice, which naturally exhibit accelerated aging and genome instability, Epitalon treatment stabilized chromatin structure, supporting a preventative mechanism rooted in epigenetic control and DNA repair [61] One of the most compelling cancer prevention models is the HER-2/neu transgenic mouse, engineered to spontaneously develop mammary tumors
Long-term administration in mice inhibited development of leukemia by 6-fold and reduced total spontaneous tumor incidence, with no increase in cancer risk despite telomerase activationaddressing theoretical concerns about uncontrolled proliferation
