Epithalon (Epitalon) | Peptide Encyclopedia | Auryx
Epithalon (Epitalon) is a physician-reviewed Auryx Learn encyclopedia entry. A synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) that activates telomerase, preserves telomere length, and restores circadian rhythm. This page is educational. It is not a dosing guide and not a substitute for a licensed clinician.
How it works
Epithalon was developed by the Russian Gerontology Institute and stimulates the pineal gland to produce melatonin while activating telomerase — the enzyme responsible for maintaining telomere length. Telomere shortening is a primary biomarker of cellular aging. By slowing this process, Epithalon supports cellular longevity and replication fidelity.
- Telomere length preservation (anti-aging at cellular level)
- Improved melatonin production and circadian rhythm
- Antioxidant protection against oxidative stress
- Enhanced immune function in aging populations
- Neuroendocrine restoration
A flagship anti-aging and longevity peptide. Used in cyclical protocols for adults seeking cellular longevity and circadian optimization.
Developed by Prof. Vladimir Khavinson at the Saint Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. Subject of over 100 published studies examining telomerase activity and cellular aging mechanisms.
