Epithalon (Epitalon) Tetrapeptide for Research
Technical Overview
Epithalon (also known as Epitalon or AAT) is a synthetic peptide derived from epithalamin, a naturally occurring compound of the pineal gland. It is widely studied in aging research for its potential to promote telomerase activity, the enzyme that helps protect and lengthen telomeres, the protective caps at the ends of chromosomes.
Research applications
- Aging research: its potential to extend cell lifespan by influencing telomere length and protecting cellular integrity.
- Cellular regeneration: regeneration of damaged or aging cells.
- Endocrine function: natural hormone production and balance, especially in aging models.
- Immune function: its effects on immune activity.
Mechanisms under study
Telomeres shorten each time a cell divides, and this shortening contributes to cellular aging and cell death. Studies suggest Epithalon may support telomere maintenance by increasing telomerase activity, which could slow cellular aging. Research also looks at its effects on sleep patterns, circadian rhythm regulation, immune function and recovery from stress, and its long-term impact is still being investigated.

Storage & Intended Use
Storage Instructions
Handling and Storage Tips:
- On arrival, store the sealed vial at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture.
- For short-term storage (days to weeks), refrigeration at 2–8 °C is acceptable.
- Lyophilized peptides tolerate room temperature for short periods, such as during shipping.
- Let the vial reach room temperature before opening, to avoid condensation.
- Once reconstituted, keep refrigerated at 2–8 °C and avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.

Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Epithalon third-party tested?
Yes. Each lot is tested by Bioviridian, an independent HPLC-MS laboratory, for identity (mass spectrometry), purity (RP-HPLC), content and endotoxin, and the Certificate of Analysis is published for that lot.
Can I see the Certificate of Analysis before buying?
Yes. Download it from the Documents section above, or search the lot number in our COA library.
What does 'Research Use Only' mean?
Products are supplied only for laboratory research. They are not drugs, foods, supplements or cosmetics and are not for human or veterinary use.
How is it shipped and stored?
Cold-packed with tracking, same day on orders by 2 PM ET. Store lyophilized vials at −20 °C on arrival.
