Epithalon
Epithalon (also Epitalon / Epithalone) is a synthetic tetrapeptide, sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly (AEDG), developed by Prof. Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. Molecular weight 390.35 g/mol; CAS 307297-39-8. It is a synthetic analog of epithalamin, a pineal-gland polypeptide, and has attracted interest in the longevity research community for its reported ability to activate telomerase and restore melatonin production in aging organisms. Note: nearly all published research originates from a single group, and the compound has not undergone Western-standard randomized controlled trials in humans.Reported areas of research interest:Telomerase activation and telomere elongation in somatic cellsMelatonin production and circadian-rhythm restorationAntioxidant defense and DNA-repair pathway activationImmune modulation and geroprotectionSpecification: 10 mg per vial · 99%+ purity · lyophilized powder · for laboratory and research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.
