Description
What it is
A tetrapeptide developed by Russian researcher Vladimir Khavinson, studied for its effects on telomerase activity and pineal function. One of the most-researched bioregulators in longevity science.
Why it’s studied
Epithalon is one of the few research peptides with long-term human observational data — including a 12-year study tracking mortality outcomes in elderly populations.
Key research findings
-
~50% reduction in mortality rates over 12 years (Khavinson et al., elderly population study)
-
Documented telomerase activation in human cell culture research
-
Effects on pineal melatonin regulation in animal models
