Epithalon

Synthetic Tetrapeptide - Tetrapeptide studied for telomerase and circadian research.

Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide based on epithalamin, a pineal-gland extract, studied for its reported effects on telomerase activity and circadian regulation in ageing research.

Epithalon comes out of the Russian peptide-bioregulator tradition, where short peptides are studied for tissue-specific regulatory effects, and it is most associated with telomerase and pineal/circadian research. Much of its literature is preclinical and its mechanisms remain an active area of study.
