Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide known for its profound anti-aging and longevity-enhancing properties. It activates telomerase, extends telomere length, improves sleep, modulates the immune system, and reduces oxidative stress. With a strong history of research in Russia and Europe, Epithalon is considered one of the most effective peptides for delaying biological aging and improving overall health span.

Current Research Focus

Primary Research Areas:

  • Peptide Structure: Formed by four amino acids linked via peptide bonds, creating a simple and stable linear configuration.
  • Amino Acid Composition: Alanine (Ala), Glutamic Acid (Glu), Aspartic Acid (Asp), and Glycine (Gly), each contributing to structural stability, neurotransmission, metabolic function, and cellular repair.
  • Polarity and Solubility: Hydrophilic due to polar side chains, allowing efficient interaction with cellular environments.
  • Physiological Charge: Negatively charged at physiological pH due to acidic amino acids.
Mechanism of Action

1. Telomerase Activation: Stimulates telomerase activity, supporting maintenance and elongation of telomeres—the protective chromosome caps that shorten with age.

2. Antioxidant Activity: Reduces oxidative stress and protects DNA and cellular structures from damage.

3. Pineal Gland Regulation: Enhances melatonin production and supports circadian rhythm balance through pineal gland modulation.

4. Immune System Modulation: Strengthens immune response and may delay age-related immune decline.
