Overview

Epithalon (Epitalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed from the natural polypeptide Epithalamin, extracted from the bovine pineal gland. It is one of the most studied longevity peptides, with over 30 years of research — primarily by Prof. Vladimir Khavinson — demonstrating telomerase activation, circadian rhythm regulation, and anti-aging effects.

Mechanism of Action

  • ▸Activates telomerase enzyme, extending telomere length in somatic cells
  • ▸Regulates pineal gland function and melatonin secretion
  • ▸Normalizes circadian rhythm through hypothalamic-pineal axis regulation
  • ▸Antioxidant effects: upregulates SOD and catalase expression
  • ▸Promotes restoration of normal cellular gene expression patterns
  • ▸Anti-tumor activity through normalization of cell cycle regulation

Key Research Findings

  • ▸Demonstrated 1.3–1.6x telomere lengthening in human somatic cell cultures
  • ▸Increased maximum lifespan by 13–27% in multiple rodent studies
  • ▸Suppression of tumor development in carcinogen-exposed animals
  • ▸Restoration of immune function (T-lymphocyte activity) in aged models
  • ▸Normalization of gonadotropin and melatonin levels in aged animals
  • ▸Improved antioxidant defense in aging tissue models

Research Applications

Epithalon is used in longevity research, telomere biology, circadian rhythm studies, cancer biology, immunogerontology, and pineal gland function research.

Reconstitution

Dissolve in 1–2 mL bacteriostatic water or sterile saline. Highly water soluble. Swirl gently until clear.

Storage

Lyophilized: –20°C for up to 24 months. Reconstituted: 2–8°C, use within 28 days.

Purity & Testing

≥99% by HPLC · Mass confirmed · Third-party tested
