REF #OA-828-EPIMOLECULAR PROFILE
Epitalon (also known as Epithalon or Epithalamin) is a synthetic tetrapeptide derived from the pineal gland peptide Epithalamin. With the molecular formula C₁₄H₂₂N₄O₉ and a molecular weight of 390.4 g/mol (CAS: 76066-85-2), Epitalon consists of four amino acids (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) and mimics the endogenous peptide involved in melatonin regulation.
Ala-Glu-Asp-GlyMECHANISM OF ACTION
Epitalon has been shown to increase telomerase activity and elongate telomeres in human somatic cell cultures through hTERT upregulation.
Research indicates Epitalon influences melatonin-producing enzyme expression in pineal gland cell models.
