Epithalon research product
10mg vial, research use only
The Epithalon research product is available in New Zealand for laboratory study.
Epithalon (also written Epitalon; sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly, abbreviated AEDG) is a synthetic tetrapeptide developed as the short-chain analogue of the pineal polypeptide preparation Epithalamin. First synthesized in the laboratory of Vladimir Khavinson, it has become a widely referenced model compound in gerontological and telomere-biology research. With a molecular formula of C14H22N4O9 and a molecular weight of 390.35 g/mol, Epithalon is one of the smallest peptides studied in the context of cellular senescence and pineal regulation.
Research literature on Epithalon centers on its reported influence over telomerase activity in cultured somatic cells, its interactions with chromatin and specific gene-promoter regions, and its proposed role in circadian and neuroendocrine signaling associated with the pineal gland. These investigations position AEDG as a peptide bioregulator model, though the precise molecular targets and mechanisms remain an active subject of study. This material is supplied strictly for laboratory research use.
About this research peptide
Every peptide in our catalogue is supplied as a lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed vial, accompanied by a batch number for full traceability. Before release, each batch is analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to confirm ≥99% purity and by mass spectrometry (MS) to verify sequence identity. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis is available on request.
For laboratory use, reconstitute the lyophilised peptide using bacteriostatic water or the solvent specified by your research protocol. Store lyophilised vials at −20°C, protected from light and moisture, and keep reconstituted solutions refrigerated at 2–8°C. Always follow your institution’s laboratory safety procedures and handle these compounds in accordance with all applicable New Zealand regulations.
These products are supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research purposes only. They are not medicines or dietary supplements, are not for human or veterinary use, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
