Product Overview
Epithalon (also called Epitalon or Epithalamin) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) originally derived from a natural pineal gland extract. It is studied in research settings for its roles in cellular aging, telomere dynamics, antioxidative processes, and circadian regulation. Laboratory investigations have explored Epithalon in relation to oxidative stress modulation, telomerase activity, mitochondrial function, and lifespan-related cellular mechanisms.
Important Note
Epithalon is not approved for human consumption, medical use, or diagnostic purposes. It is supplied strictly for laboratory research only. Handling should be performed by qualified professionals in an appropriate research setting.
