Epithalon
Synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) derived from pineal-gland research literature. Studied in telomerase-activity and circadian-rhythm models.
What the literature says.
Mechanism of action
Referenced mechanisms include binding to gene-promoter regions modulating transcription of the TERT (telomerase reverse transcriptase) subunit, and effects on pineal melatonin output.
Preclinical summary
Epithalon (Epitalon) is a 4-amino-acid synthetic peptide associated with work from the Russian Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. Published studies cover rodent longevity, melatonin secretion, and telomerase activity in somatic cell cultures.
