Abstract

A circadian rhythm for beta-endorphin was observed by means of the cosinor method in aged subjects. The rhythm mesor is a little lower but its amplitude is more extended than in young subjects. The confidence intervals of the acrophases of the two groups are superimposable with a timing in the morning.
