Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed as a defined analog of epithalamin, a peptide extract originally isolated from the pineal gland. Its short, linear structure makes it a practical reference compound in cellular aging research, where it is most often studied for its reported influence on telomerase expression and telomere length in cultured cells. It is also investigated in the context of circadian rhythm regulation and pineal signaling, given its origin. Supplied as a high-purity lyophilized powder for reproducible in-vitro and approved in-vivo work. This product is for laboratory research and development purposes only and must be handled by qualified professionals. Not for human, therapeutic, or diagnostic use.
Telomerase Activity
Most commonly studied for its reported effect on telomerase expression and telomere maintenance in cultured cell lines.
Circadian & Pineal Signaling
Derived from a pineal peptide extract, making it a natural reference tool in studies of melatonin rhythm and circadian regulation.
Cellular Aging Models
Used in replicative senescence assays and other in-vitro models examining proliferative lifespan of cultured cells.
Defined Synthetic Analog
A single, characterized sequence — unlike the crude pineal extract it models — giving researchers a reproducible reagent.
Compact, Stable Sequence
Its four-residue length makes it straightforward to handle, dissolve, and dose consistently across experimental replicates.
≥99% HPLC Purity
Every batch is HPLC-verified and supplied lyophilized, ensuring reproducible results across long study timelines.
