Epitalon (AEDG) is a synthetic tetrapeptide modelled on the pineal peptide epithalamin, developed by Khavinson and studied widely in gerontology, telomere and chronobiology research. CAS 307297-39-8; molecular formula C14H22N4O9; molecular weight approximately 390.35 g/mol; sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly; supplied lyophilised at ≥99% by HPLC. For laboratory research use only.
Modelled on a fragment of the naturally occurring pineal peptide complex epithalamin, Epitalon (also written AEDG, after its amino-acid sequence) is a synthetic tetrapeptide that has become a central reagent in the study of cellular aging. Its remarkable brevity — just four residues — combined with reported bioactivity makes it a favourite probe for researchers investigating telomere biology, circadian gene regulation and oxidative balance.
A four-letter peptide drawn from the pineal gland. The pineal gland secretes regulatory peptides thought to influence the body's aging clock. Decades of Russian gerontology research distilled this activity into a short synthetic sequence, Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly, designed to reproduce key actions of the natural extract in a defined, reproducible form. That lineage places Epitalon among the most studied of the so-called peptide bioregulators.

Epitalon (also written AEDG, after its Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly sequence) is a synthetic tetrapeptide modelled on a fragment of the naturally occurring pineal peptide complex epithalamin. It has become a central reagent in cellular-aging research. Condor Research supplies it as a 10 mg lyophilized vial at ≥99% HPLC purity, strictly as a research-use-only reference material for in-vitro study.
Epitalon and Pinealon are both short pineal-related synthetic peptides but differ in sequence and research framing. Epitalon is the tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly (AEDG), studied as a reagent in cellular-aging and longevity research. Pinealon is the tripeptide Glu-Asp-Arg, framed more around neuroprotective research. Both are supplied as separate ≥99% HPLC, research-use-only reference peptides.
The distinction reflects how each peptide is studied, not a claimed effect. Epitalon (AEDG) is widely used as a reference reagent in cellular-aging and longevity research models. Pinealon (Glu-Asp-Arg) appears more often in neuroprotective research contexts. Both are short peptide bioregulators sold as ≥99% HPLC research-use-only materials for in-vitro laboratory work only.
They are different classes of molecule used in longevity research. Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (AEDG) studied as a peptide reference reagent. NAD+ is a fundamental coenzyme central to cellular energy metabolism, supplied as a high-mass 1000 mg vial. Researchers select between a defined peptide and a metabolic cofactor based on the pathway under study. Both are research-use-only.
Epitalon and DSIP are distinct peptides occasionally grouped under pineal/circadian biology. Epitalon is the tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly, studied in cellular-aging research. DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) is a naturally occurring nonapeptide studied in sleep and neuroregulatory research. They differ in sequence, size, and research focus, and each is supplied as a separate ≥99% HPLC, research-use-only reference peptide.
Epitalon is supplied strictly as a research-use-only reference compound for in-vitro laboratory study; it is not a medicine, supplement, or anti-aging product, and is not for human or veterinary use, administration, or consumption. It is used by researchers as a reagent in cellular-aging studies. Condor Research makes no therapeutic or wellness claims and provides no human-use guidance.
Yes. Epitalon is supplied strictly for laboratory research use only (in vitro). It is not a medicine, food, supplement, cosmetic, or medical device, and is not for human or veterinary use, administration, or consumption. Condor Research provides no dosing or protocols. Purchase is restricted to qualified professionals and institutions aged 18 or over.
For analytical laboratory preparation only, Epitalon is water-soluble and can be reconstituted with a sterile aqueous diluent; the volume chosen sets the working concentration. Store the sealed lyophilized vial at -20°C, protected from light, with a 24-month shelf life from manufacture. This is laboratory handling information, not guidance for any human or animal use.
Yes. Each Epitalon lot is tested by an independent third-party laboratory by HPLC for identity and purity, with mass spectrometry confirmation, and ships against a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) verifying ≥99% purity. To request the COA for the current lot before ordering, contact info@condorresearch.com.
Each Epitalon vial contains 10 mg of lyophilized peptide at ≥99% HPLC purity, supplied as a research-use-only reference material. The stated mass is an analytical reference quantity, not a dose. Vial fill and identity are verified by independent third-party testing and documented on the lot's Certificate of Analysis.
Reconstitution was clean with no visible particulates. The lot-specific COA matched the assay we ran in-house — purity is exactly as stated.
We verify every incoming compound by HPLC; this batch came back within tolerance of the certificate. Dispatch from the EU warehouse was quick.
Cold-chain handling was respected end to end. Vials arrived sealed, labelled and intact. Documentation is the most thorough I've seen from an EU supplier.
Solubility and stability were as described. Knocked one star only because express shipping options are limited, but quality is not in question.
