Epigenetic therapy is an innovative medical approach aimed at correcting epigenetic changes in DNA to treat or prevent various conditions, including cancer and genetic diseases. This therapy focuses on chemical and structural changes to DNA and histones (proteins associated with DNA) that influence how genes are turned on or off, without changing the basic DNA sequence. Epigenetic therapy may involve the use of drugs or techniques that restore normal epigenetic changes to properly regulate gene expression and correct epigenetic abnormalities that may contribute to disease development.
EPIGENETIC THERAPY
Epigenetic oncology therapy is a form of therapy that uses a specific signal transduction of a molecule that occurs naturally in the body to achieve telomerase inhibition.
Price: Customized depending on the type of cancer, stage and duration of treatment.
What is epigenetic therapy?
Epigenetic therapy is an innovative therapeutic approach that focuses on epigenetic modifications of DNA to reduce tumor formation and metastasis. This form of therapy is often used in combination with other oncology treatment methods.
How does epigenetic therapy work?
Epigenetic therapy is an innovative medical approach that aims to modify epigenetic changes in DNA to treat or prevent various conditions, including cancer and genetic diseases. To understand how epigenetic therapy works, it is important to understand the concept of epigenetics and how it affects gene expression.
This therapy is unique and unprecedented, with 99.5% telomerase inhibition in just 72 hours. (see the worldwide publication from 08.03.22 in Cureus Journal of Medical Science).
Epigenetic therapy acts intranuclearly, inhibits telomerase activity and regulates important key epigenetic positions through an autocatalytic effect (eg demethylation).
Epigenetic therapy tries to reverse or modify these epigenetic changes to properly regulate gene expression and correct epigenetic abnormalities that can contribute to the development of diseases. There are several ways to achieve this:
a. Inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs): Some epigenetic therapies use drugs that inhibit HDACs, enzymes that can restrict access to genes. By inhibiting these enzymes, a more appropriate expression of the genes is allowed.
b. Changing DNA methylation: Other therapies may target changing DNA methylation levels to turn certain genes on or off. This can be achieved with the help of drugs that affect DNA methylation.
c. RNA interfering therapy (RNAi): RNAi can be used to influence the level of gene expression, interfering with the process of transcription of DNA into RNA. This can be used to turn off the expression of abnormal genes or to amplify the expression of genes that are insufficiently expressed.
d. CRISPR-Cas9 therapy: CRISPR-Cas9 technology can be adapted to effect precise modifications of the epigenome, including modification of DNA methylation or histone structure. This allows precise adjustment of gene expression.
When is epigenetic therapy recommended?
Epigenetic therapy can be recommended in several medical contexts, especially in the following situations:
Cancer: Epigenetic therapy is frequently used in the treatment of cancer to influence the expression of genes that promote abnormal cell growth or to activate genes that stimulate apoptosis (programmed cell death).
Genetic diseases: For rare or hereditary genetic diseases, epigenetic therapy can correct the expression of affected genes, helping to treat or improve symptoms.
Chronic diseases: Epigenetics can be used to treat or manage chronic diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases, heart disease and diabetes.
Cancer prevention: In some cases, epigenetic therapy can be used to prevent the development of cancer in people at high risk, influencing the epigenome to reduce the genetic predisposition.
Lifestyle and health: Epigenetic therapy can provide information on how lifestyle, such as diet and exercise, can influence epigenetic changes and therefore overall health.
Diagnosis: The epigenome can provide valuable information for the diagnosis of diseases, helping to identify the specific epigenetic markers of various diseases.
Epigenetics in cancer
In cancer, epigenetic therapy is often used to correct epigenetic changes that contribute to cancer development and progression. This may include altering DNA methylation or histone structure to influence gene expression. The main goal is to slow abnormal cell growth and promote apoptosis of cancer cells.
Epigenetics and cancer prevention
Epigenetics can play an important role in cancer prevention by influencing environmental and lifestyle factors on epigenetic changes. By adopting a healthy lifestyle and by avoiding risk factors, such as smoking and exposure to carcinogenic substances, it is possible to reduce the epigenetic changes that predispose to cancer.
Epigenetic treatment in chronic conditions
In chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes or neurological diseases, epigenetic therapy can help correct the epigenetic abnormalities that contribute to the progression of these diseases. This can provide a personalized and more effective therapeutic approach.
Epigenetics and lifestyle
Lifestyle can influence epigenetic changes, and learning how diet, exercise and other factors can affect gene expression can promote overall health and well-being.
Epigenomics and diagnostics
The epigenome can be used in diagnosis to identify specific epigenetic markers of various diseases. This can contribute to early diagnosis and the development of personalized therapies.
The benefits of epigenetic therapy
Targeted apoptosis: After application, a significant increase in apoptosis is observed, recording a 63% reduction in abnormal cells in the first 48 hours. This means that the formula acts effectively on affected or potentially malignant cells, contributing to their elimination from the body.
Stabilization of fibroblasts: The formula helps to stabilize fibroblasts, essential cells for tissue repair and wound healing. This stabilization promotes more efficient tissue regeneration and can contribute to faster healing of wounds.
Intensive reduction of inflammation: The formula has a strong effect of reducing inflammation in the body. This aspect is particularly important, because chronic inflammation can be a risk factor for the development of serious diseases.
Accelerated healing of wounds: Due to its beneficial effect on the tissue repair process, the formula contributes to a faster and more efficient healing of wounds, thus increasing the quality and speed of the recovery process.
Improving cellular respiration: The formula improves the process of cellular respiration, ensuring a better supply of oxygen and essential nutrients to the cells. This can significantly support the correct functioning of cells and tissues.
Beneficial influence on the length of telomeres: Research shows that the formula has a positive effect on the length of telomeres in cancer cells, extending them. At the same time, healthy cells are stabilized, which contributes to maintaining genome integrity and long-term cellular health.

Frequently asked questions for EPIGENETIC THERAPY
An epigenetic therapy session begins with a complete evaluation of the patient's state of health by a doctor specialized in epigenetics. This evaluation may involve genetic and epigenetic tests to identify specific epigenetic changes in the patient. Based on these results, the doctor develops a personalized treatment plan that may include drugs, genetic therapies or other specific interventions.
The duration of an epigenetic therapy session can vary depending on the complexity of the evaluation and the treatment plan. An initial consultation to assess your health and discuss treatment options can usually last between 30 minutes and an hour. However, the actual treatment may involve multiple sessions and may be an ongoing process lasting weeks or months.
