Epithalon
Contact Us →Epithalon (also known as Epitalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) originally derived from the pineal gland peptide epithalamin. It has attracted growing interest in research focused on aging, telomere elongation, and circadian rhythm regulation.
Studies have shown that Epithalon activates telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), promoting telomere elongation and delaying cellular senescence. It also influences melatonin synthesis and pineal function, regulating the sleep-wake cycle and neuroendocrine balance. It may also play a role in life extension research, oxidative stress reduction, immune modulation, and prevention of age-related diseases.
