Product Description
Epithalon (also known as Epitalon or Epithalamin) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) derived from the naturally occurring pineal peptide complex Epithalamin. It has been studied extensively in Russian biogerontology research for its involvement in telomere biology, cellular aging pathways, and neuroendocrine regulation.
Researchers investigate Epithalon to explore telomerase activation, telomere length maintenance, oxidative stress modulation, circadian rhythm–related gene expression, and age-associated cellular changes in controlled cellular and animal models. Its small molecular size and well-defined sequence make it a frequently referenced compound in longevity and aging-related research frameworks.
This compound is not intended for human or animal use, and is not designed for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical applications. All use must remain strictly within qualified research settings.

Telomere Biology & Cellular Aging
Epithalon is studied for its interaction with telomerase activity and telomere length regulation, contributing to research on cellular replicative capacity and aging-related genomic stability in vitro.
Oxidative Stress & Cellular Resilience
Research models explore how Epithalon may influence antioxidant enzyme activity and oxidative stress markers, supporting investigations into cellular defense mechanisms during aging.
Neuroendocrine & Circadian Rhythm Signaling
Epithalon is examined for its role in pineal gland–associated signaling and melatonin-related pathways, making it relevant for circadian rhythm and sleep-wake cycle research.
Longevity & Age-Associated Models
Animal studies investigate Epithalon within aging and lifespan research frameworks, including reproductive and neuroendocrine function in advanced age models.
