Evidence That Melatonin Is An Anti-Aging Therapy
Melatonin Improves
Immune Function
The pineal transplants showed that young pineal tissue could
rejuvenate atrophied thymus glands in aging mice. Since the
thymus is the master gland of immunity, this finding suggests
that melatonin and other pineal hormones may be able to boost
declining immune function in middle and old-age animals.
Experiments
In Italy
Further experiments at the National Institute For Research On
Aging (INRCA) in Ancona, Italy have demonstrated that
melatonin can counteract the atrophy of the thymus gland to
restore the organ's youthful ability to generate mature
T-cells.
It has also been shown that melatonin increases interleukin-2
(IL-2) production and improves the effectiveness of natural
killer cells -- two important components of the immune system.
Among the mechanisms of action proposed for melatonin's immune
boosting effects have been that:
Melatonin
 has a direct stimulatory effect on immune system tissues;
Melatonin affects immune function indirectly through its
effects on thyroid-stimulating-hormone;
Melatonin influences zinc metabolism, which, in turn, plays a
major role in strengthening immune function.
