Epithalon 10mg
Epithalon is the synthetic tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly, derived from the pineal extract epithalamin. It is studied for effects on telomerase expression and circadian regulation, and is one of the most frequently investigated of the Khavinson short peptides.

About Epithalon 10mg
Epithalon came out of Vladimir Khavinson's programme at the St Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, which held that short peptides derived from specific tissues act as gene-regulatory signals for those tissues. Epithalon is the pineal representative, and the telomerase findings in human somatic cell culture are the most cited results in that body of work. Much of the underlying literature is Russian-language and has been criticised for limited independent replication, which is worth weighing when designing experiments. This 10mg vial is the small presentation, sized for single-series culture work and dose-response characterisation where the 50mg vial would sit part-used.
Storage and reconstitution
Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C in a dry, dark environment. Reconstitute in bacteriostatic water. Once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Lyophilized powder is stable at room temperature for shipping and short-term storage.
Shipping within Canada
Orders placed before 2:00 PM Pacific on a business day are packed and dispatched the same day. Orders placed after that cut-off, or on a weekend or statutory holiday, are dispatched on the next business day. Parcels leave British Columbia, Canada and travel entirely within the country, so nothing on this order crosses a border, clears customs or is held by CBSA. Orders over CA$200 ship free; see the shipping page for transit times by province.
