Bioregulator Peptides for Research: Epithalon and Pinealon
The Bioregulators collection groups research peptides studied for their role in regulating aging-related and neuroendocrine processes. It includes Epithalon as a 50 mg lyophilized vial and as 1 mg capsules, and a three-peptide Selank / Semax / Pinealon nasal spray, all supplied for laboratory research in the USA.
What Are Bioregulator Peptides?
In this collection, bioregulator peptides are short synthetic peptides modeled on compounds the body makes itself, used to study how biological systems regulate cell aging, circadian rhythm and nervous system signaling. Epithalon, for example, is derived from epithalamin, a naturally occurring compound of the pineal gland. These peptides are research tools only and are not for human or veterinary use.
Epithalon (Epitalon) Research
Epithalon, also known as Epitalon or AAT, is one of the most widely studied peptides in aging research. Its main research interest is telomerase, the enzyme that helps protect and lengthen telomeres, the protective caps at the ends of chromosomes. 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.
Researchers also study Epithalon for:
- Cellular regeneration: repair and function of damaged or aging cells.
- Circadian rhythm and sleep: regulation of sleep patterns and circadian rhythms.
- Endocrine function: natural hormone production and balance in aging models.
- Immune function: immune activity and recovery from stress.
Epithalon Vial vs. Epithalon Capsules
The Epithalon vial holds 50 mg of lyophilized powder, the format best suited to studies that need to prepare their own solutions; store it at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. Epithalon capsules provide 1 mg per capsule, 60 capsules per bottle, for oral-format research; keep them sealed below 25 °C in a dry place.
Selank / Semax / Pinealon Nasal Spray
This ready-to-use nasal spray combines three research peptides in one prepared material, so investigators can study them together without a reconstitution step. Selank is a synthetic peptide based on tuftsin-related sequences, and Semax is a modified analogue derived from ACTH fragments; both are studied for neuropeptide signaling, neurotransmitter balance and peptide-receptor interactions. Store the spray refrigerated at 2–8 °C after receipt. Single-peptide Selank and Semax sprays and a two-peptide Selank / Semax spray are also available in our Research Peptides collection.
Why Bioregulators Are Studied Together
Aging, sleep and stress research often looks at several regulatory systems at once. Grouping the pineal-derived Epithalon with neuropeptide formulations makes it easier to plan studies across cellular aging, circadian regulation and nervous system signaling from one supplier and one set of lot documentation.
Lot Documentation
The Epithalon vial lists its lot purity by reverse-phase HPLC, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry by an independent HPLC-MS laboratory, and published certificates of analysis can be looked up by lot number in our COA library. For capsule and spray lots, the product page shows whether the lot COA has been published yet.
