behind the compound.
Overview
Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly), the synthetic analog of the pineal-gland extract epithalamin, developed at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. It is the most extensively studied telomerase-associated geroprotective peptide and is characterized by an ultra-low-concentration response profile.
It is a central reference in the longevity category, studied for its role in models of telomerase activity and cellular aging.
