Epithalon Research Overview
Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed by Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. It is a synthetic analog of the natural pineal-gland peptide epithalamin.

Molecular formula C₁₄H₂₂N₄O₉, molecular weight 390.35 g/mol, sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly (L-alanyl-L-glutamyl-L-aspartyl-glycine). Epithalon upregulates telomerase activity in somatic cells, restoring telomere length in cultured human fibroblasts. It also normalizes circadian melatonin secretion in older animals and increases lifespan in multiple rodent models — among the most consistent longevity signals in the peptide literature. Epithalon is supplied as lyophilized powder and is classified in our catalog under pineal tetrapeptide for pineal tetrapeptide work. Recorded research categories for this compound include telomerase activity and telomere length research, circadian rhythm and melatonin studies, longevity and lifespan extension research, pineal gland function studies. Handling notes: store at -20°c (freezer), protect the vial from light, and avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles once reconstituted. Amino Fuel Labs publishes no dosing protocol for Epithalon: the compound is distributed for in-vitro and preclinical laboratory research only and is not intended for human or veterinary use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Epithalon or Epitalon — same thing?
Yes. Epithalon, Epitalon and Epithalamin (the natural pineal extract it derives from) all refer to the same Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly peptide. Spelling varies between Western and Russian transliterations.
What's the published evidence for telomerase activation?
Khavinson's group showed Epithalon restores telomerase activity and telomere length in human somatic cells in vitro and extends lifespan in multiple rodent and human cohort studies over 20+ years.
How is Epithalon typically dosed in research?
Published protocols typically use 5-10mg per day for 10-20 day cycles, repeated 1-2x per year. Refer to original Khavinson et al. literature for full protocols.
What is Epithalon studied for?
Epithalon appears in laboratory research covering longevity research, telomere studies, sleep regulation. All references describe in-vitro and preclinical study models only.
Does Epithalon include a Certificate of Analysis?
Yes. Each Epithalon lot ships with a batch-specific third-party Certificate of Analysis reporting 99.5% purity by reversed-phase HPLC alongside mass-spectrometry identity confirmation.
What form does Epithalon arrive in?
Epithalon is supplied as lyophilized powder in a sealed vial, packed with the lot documentation for the exact batch shipped.
