EPITHALON

Epithalon (Research Grade)

Product Overview:

Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide consisting of the amino acid sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. It is a laboratory-engineered analogue of Epithalamin, a peptide naturally occurring in the pineal gland. In molecular biology research, Epithalon is a primary tool for investigating the mechanisms of cellular aging and the regulation of circadian rhythms at a genomic level.
