- What is Epithalon?
- Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed from research on the natural pineal peptide preparation Epithalamin. It is widely studied in telomerase-activity and ageing-research models.
- What does the published research focus on?
- Telomerase activation in somatic cells, normalisation of melatonin rhythms in rodent models, and longevity endpoints in long-running animal studies are the most-cited areas — see the Epithalon research overview for representative citations.
- How does Epithalon compare to Pinealon?
- Both are short peptide bioregulators with pineal-related research origins. Pinealon (Glu-Asp-Arg) is studied more in neuroprotection contexts; Epithalon's research footprint is dominated by telomerase and longevity models.
- How is Epithalon stored?
- Lyophilized Epithalon is stable at 2–8 °C protected from light. After reconstitution, refrigerate and use within the COA's documented window.
