Epithalon

Epithalon | Telomerase Activator & Pineal Regulator

A synthetic tetrapeptide (Epitalon) designed for the study of telomere maintenance and biological aging.

Epithalon is a synthetic version of the polypeptide Epithalamin, naturally produced in the pineal gland. It is a cornerstone of gerontological research, primarily studied for its potential to activate the enzyme telomerase. Researchers investigate its role in lengthening telomeres, reducing oxidative stress, and normalizing circadian rhythms through melatonin regulation.

Research Benchmarks: Longevity & Cellular Integrity

• Telomere Elongation: Investigating the upregulation of telomerase activity in somatic cells.
• Pineal Gland Modulation: Studying the restoration of nocturnal melatonin secretion in aging models.
• Genomic Stability: Researching the reduction of DNA damage and chromosomal aberrations.
