Product Details
Description:
Epithalon, also known as Epitalon, is a synthetic tetrapeptide with the amino acid sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. It was developed as a synthetic analogue of epithalamin, a polypeptide complex extracted from the pineal gland of cattle.
In a research context, Epithalon is a subject of significant interest in the study of cellular aging. It is primarily used as a tool in *in vitro* models to investigate its effects on telomerase activity and telomere elongation. Preclinical research often focuses on its potential to modulate gene expression and its influence on the cell cycle in various cell culture systems.
