Research overview
Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide identified as the putative active component of epithalamin, a bovine pineal gland extract. Reported research links it to increased telomerase activity and telomere elongation in cells. Most studies have come from the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, though research elsewhere has begun more recently.
