Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) based on the natural epithalamin peptide produced by the pineal gland. It is one of the most studied peptides in longevity research, with investigations focused on telomerase activation, circadian rhythm regulation, and anti-aging mechanisms.
Epitalon (also known as Epithalon or Epithalone) is a synthetic tetrapeptide with the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. It was originally discovered and studied by Professor Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. Epitalon is a synthetic version of epithalamin, a polypeptide naturally produced by the pineal gland. Research has primarily focused on its ability to activate telomerase — the enzyme responsible for maintaining telomere length — as well as its effects on melatonin production, circadian rhythm regulation, and neuroendocrine function. It is one of the most widely investigated peptides in the field of aging and longevity research.
