Epithalon
Epithalon (Epitalon)
Telomerase-activating peptide with longevity research
How it works
Epithalon activates the enzyme telomerase, promoting elongation of telomeres in somatic cells. It also regulates circadian rhythms via the pineal gland, restores melatonin production in aged subjects, and modulates the hypothalamic-pituitary axis.
What the research explores
In published research, Epithalon has been studied in connection with the following. These describe findings reported in the literature — not approved uses, claims, or outcomes to expect.
- Activates telomerase and supports telomere elongation
- Restores melatonin production in elderly subjects
- Normalizes hypothalamic-pituitary function
- Extends lifespan in animal models
- Reduces incidence of mammary gland tumors in animal studies
- Anti-oxidant and DNA repair promotion
Dr. Khavinson's landmark studies showed Epithalon extended maximum lifespan in multiple animal models and demonstrated telomere lengthening in human somatic cells, the first peptide to do so in clinical observation.
