Epithalon
longevity compound
Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide modeled after the endogenous pineal peptide epithalamin, recognized for its potential to support telomere maintenance and mitigate cellular senescence. It serves as a foundational tool in longevity research aimed at modulating biological markers of aging.
Research Areas
Mechanism of Action
The peptide primarily exerts its biological influence by stimulating telomerase activity and modulating pineal gland output to harmonize neuroendocrine circadian rhythms.
