⸺ Overview
About Epitalon
Epitalon (Epithalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide based on a pineal gland extract. It is used in preclinical longevity and chronobiology research, with particular focus on telomere biology and melatonin rhythms.
⸺ Mechanism of Action
How it works
Research suggests Epitalon can upregulate telomerase expression in cell cultures, supporting telomere maintenance, and influence pineal melatonin output — linking it to circadian and antioxidant signalling in animal models.
⸺ Research
Areas of study
Telomerase activity
In vitro studies report increased telomerase expression and extended replicative capacity in human cell lines.
Circadian and melatonin rhythms
Animal research examines restoration of age-related changes in melatonin secretion patterns.
Oxidative stress models
Preclinical work investigates antioxidant markers and lifespan endpoints in rodent studies.
