Epithalon (Epitalon)
Tetrapeptide bioregulator studied for telomerase and pineal aging research.
What Researchers Study
Epithalon (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) is a synthetic tetrapeptide developed by the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation. Literature examines telomerase activity, pineal melatonin production, and antioxidant enzyme expression in aging cell models.
Primary Research Applications
- Telomerase activity cell assays
- Pineal aging and melatonin pathway research
- Antioxidant enzyme upregulation studies
- Longevity and senescence model endpoints
Benefits Researchers Are Exploring (in simple terms)
Mechanisms Under Investigation
Telomerase
Reports telomerase activation in cell aging and senescence models.
Pineal Function
Studied for restoring melatonin rhythm markers in aging pinealocyte models.
Antioxidant Pathways
Superoxide dismutase and catalase upregulation in oxidative stress models.
Reconstitution Reference (how to mix it for lab use)
| Common vial size | 50 mg |
| Reconstitution | 5 mL BAC water = 10 mg/mL |
| Storage | -20 C |
| Course-based research | Bioregulator literature often describes defined courses rather than continuous dosing |
Dosing Schedule Options from Research
Example Options Used in Studies
- Bioregulator protocol literature commonly references 10-20 day courses with 4-6 month intervals
- Daily administration during active course phases in aging model research
- Cell senescence assays: 48-72 hour exposure for telomerase readouts
- Pineal studies: 14-30 day courses for melatonin enzyme markers
100-Unit Insulin Syringe Conversion Chart
Reconstitution used for these calculations: Calculate concentration (mg/mL) from the reconstitution table above. U-100 insulin syringes: 100 units = 1 mL total volume.
Important: We have already done all the math for you. U-100 insulin syringes are marked in "units" (100 units = 1 mL). Just draw the exact number of units listed below for each dose. No calculations required on your end.
| Dose (mg) | Units on 100-unit syringe (pre-calculated) |
|---|---|
| Use: Units = (desired mg / mg per mL concentration) × 100. See primary literature for exact values. | |
These unit amounts assume the exact concentration listed above. Always double-check your own reconstitution volume against the chart.
Safe Research Cycle Guidelines
