Description

Epithalon (Epitalon, Epithalamin) – Lyophilized Peptide – For Research Use Only

Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly), designed as an analogue of naturally occurring peptides produced by the pineal gland. It has been widely studied in research settings for its role in cellular regulation, aging processes, and circadian rhythm modulation.

Originally developed by the research team of Prof. Vladimir Khavinson at the Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology in Saint Petersburg, Epithalon has been a subject of interest in studies focusing on longevity and biological regulation.

At the molecular level, Epithalon is associated with the regulation of telomerase activity — an enzyme involved in maintaining telomere length, which plays a key role in cellular replication and stability. Research models suggest it may influence gene expression, support mitochondrial function, and contribute to cellular protection against oxidative stress.

Additionally, Epithalon has been explored for its interaction with biological rhythms, particularly in relation to circadian regulation and sleep cycle alignment.
