Epitalon 50MG
$79.00MG
Epitalon (also known as Epithalon or Epithalone) has become one of the most intriguing peptides in longevity and cellular-aging research. This remarkably small tetrapeptide—composed of just four amino acids, Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly—has attracted scientific interest for its investigation in areas including telomere biology, telomerase activity, cellular aging, circadian regulation, and age-associated biological processes.
Originally synthesized in the 1990s and modeled on the amino-acid composition of epitalamin, a peptide preparation derived from the pineal gland, Epitalon represents a fascinating area of bioregulation research. Its exceptionally simple structure contrasts with the complex biological pathways scientists have investigated around it, making it an especially interesting compound in the evolving field of longevity science.
For researchers exploring the fundamental mechanisms associated with cellular lifespan and biological aging, Epithalon continues to stand out as a uniquely compelling research peptide.

Overview
Epithalon (also spelled Epitalon or Epithalone) is a synthetic tetrapeptide — a chain of four amino acids — with the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. Its molecular formula is C14H22N4O9, with a molecular weight of 390.34 g/mol (CAS 307297-39-8). It was first synthesized in the 1990s, based on the amino acid composition of epithalamin, a peptide extract derived from the bovine pineal gland.
As a tetrapeptide, Epithalon is one of the smallest biologically studied peptides. Its four-residue sequence — alanine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and glycine — gives it two acidic side chains, making the molecule negatively charged at physiological pH. It dissolves readily in water and appears as a white lyophilized powder in its research-grade form.
