Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide that has been extensively studied in aging biology, cellular research, molecular biology, and peptide science. Derived from the naturally occurring peptide Epithalamin, Epitalon has attracted scientific interest for its role in laboratory studies involving telomere biology, cellular signaling, oxidative stress, and age-related biological processes. Helix Bio supplies research-grade Epitalon exclusively for laboratory, analytical, and educational research. This product is supplied strictly for research use only and is not intended for human consumption, veterinary use, therapeutic applications, or diagnostic procedures.

Epitalon, also known as Epithalone, is a synthetic tetrapeptide composed of four amino acids: Alanine, Glutamic Acid, Aspartic Acid, and Glycine. It is a synthetic analogue of Epithalamin, a naturally occurring peptide isolated from the pineal gland. Since its development, Epitalon has become a widely studied compound in longevity research, molecular biology, and cellular aging, with researchers investigating its potential interactions with cellular processes associated with chromosome maintenance, oxidative stress, and biological aging.
Epitalon is a laboratory-produced tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) designed to mimic the biological activity of Epithalamin. Helix Bio's Epitalon is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed laboratory vial to support stability prior to reconstitution.
This product exists to support in vitro and laboratory research only. It is manufactured, labeled, and sold for research use only (RUO) — not for human or veterinary use, not for diagnostic procedures, and not for compounding. It is intended for researchers studying telomere biology, DNA regulation, antioxidant pathways, and circadian and pineal gland physiology.
Aging biology remains one of the fastest-growing areas of biomedical research. Epitalon has become a valuable research tool because laboratory studies have explored its interaction with cellular signaling pathways, chromosomal maintenance mechanisms, and circadian rhythm regulation. Helix Bio manufactures research-grade Epitalon with attention to consistency, product integrity, and quality-focused production standards.
This product is not intended for individual consumers seeking to use it outside a research setting.
