Epithalon
For topical application only.
Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide derivative of Epithalamin, a polypeptide naturally secreted by the pineal gland. It is primarily studied for its role in telomerase modulation, circadian rhythm research, and neuroendocrine signaling.

Research FAQ
How should Epithalon be stored?
Store the lyophilized powder at 2–8°C for short-term research. For long-term preservation (up to 24 months), store at -20°C. Once reconstituted, keep refrigerated and use within 28 days.
What is the recommended reconstitution procedure?
- Solvent: Bacteriostatic Water or Sterile 0.9% Saline
- Standard Dilution:
- 10mg vial + 2mL solvent → 5mg/mL solution
- 10mg vial + 1mL solvent → 10mg/mL solution
- Handling: Introduce solvent slowly along the vial wall. Gently roll or swirl until fully dissolved. Do not shake.
Mechanism of Action (Research Context)
- Telomerase Activation: Studied for effects on TERT gene expression and telomere length maintenance in vitro.
- Oxidative Stress Modulation: Investigated for potential impacts on antioxidant enzyme activity.
- Neuroendocrine Pathways: Research includes effects on pineal gland signaling and circadian-related biochemical pathways.
