Key Ingredients
A four-amino acid peptide (AEDG) studied for its ability to activate telomerase in human somatic cells and regulate melatonin production via pineal gland modulation.
Discover the researchDescription
Epitalon (also spelled Epithalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide with the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. It is based on the naturally occurring peptide Epithalamin, which is extracted from the pineal gland. Epitalon has been studied for its potential role in telomerase activation and pineal gland function.
Research Background
Preclinical research on Epitalon has focused on its ability to activate telomerase, the enzyme responsible for maintaining telomere length. Additional studies have investigated its effects on melatonin secretion and circadian rhythm regulation through the pineal gland. This product is for laboratory research only.
