Epithalon
Epithalon (Epitalon)
Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide and analog of the natural peptide epithalamin. Studied in telomere biology research for its role in telomerase activation and cellular aging mechanisms.
Research Overview
Epithalon (also known as Epitalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) that is an analog of epithalamin, a natural polypeptide produced by the pineal gland. It was developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. Research interest in Epithalon centers on its reported ability to stimulate telomerase activity in somatic cells, potentially influencing telomere elongation and cellular senescence. In vitro studies have examined its effects on cell cycle regulation, oxidative stress markers, and melatonin synthesis in pineal gland cell cultures. It is a key research tool in cellular aging and longevity biology.
