Buy Epitalon — 10 mg Lyophilized Vial
Mapped against mitochondrial turnover endpoints — anti-ageing pathway work.
Epitalon (Epithalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed from pineal-gland extracts. It is one of the most studied peptides in telomere-biology and circadian-regulation research, with a multi-decade literature primarily from Russian and Eastern European groups.

Key facts
- Tetrapeptide: Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly
- Studied in telomere-biology, circadian, and longevity research
- Developed by Prof. Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation
- Available in 10 mg and 50 mg research vials
Mechanism in the literature
Research describes epitalon as a telomerase-activating peptide — upregulating telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) expression in somatic cells. It is also reported to normalize melatonin rhythms and modulate pineal-axis function in aging models.
Often paired with
Buyers viewing Epitalon typically also consider FOXO4-DRI, ACE-031 and NA-Epitalon. Each is in stock, sealed under nitrogen with a lot-matched CoA.
Research use-cases

Handling in the lab
Both injectable and intranasal research routes appear in the literature. Short courses (10–20 days) are more common than continuous protocols.
Stacking and paired-compound work
Epitalon is commonly studied alongside Pinealon and other short bioregulator peptides from the Khavinson series.
Storage and shelf-life
Lyophilized powder is stable at ambient shipping temperatures. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, store at 2–8 °C and use within 28 days. For long-term storage of unreconstituted vials, freeze at −20 °C and protect from light.
Frequently asked
Is Epitalon the same as Epithalon?
Yes — two transliterations of the same Russian-developed tetrapeptide.
What is NA-Epitalon?
N-acetylated Epitalon — a modified form with improved stability profile in some research protocols.
How long are research courses typically run?
Short pulsed courses (10–20 days, 1–2× annually in animal models) dominate the literature, not continuous dosing.
What is telomerase activation?
Upregulation of the enzyme that extends telomeres at chromosome ends — a central mechanism studied in cellular aging.
