Pinealon is a synthetic tripeptide bioregulator (Glu-Asp-Arg; CAS 175175-23-2) originally characterized from bovine pineal gland tissue and classified among the Khavinson short-chain peptide bioregulators studied for neuroprotective and circadian-regulatory activity in cell and animal models. Molecular formula C15H26N6O8; molecular weight 418.40 g/mol. Supplied in encapsulated form. For laboratory research use only; not for human or veterinary use.
Some of the most intriguing molecules in laboratory peptide science are also the smallest. Pinealon (EDR) is a tripeptide — just three amino acids, Glu-Asp-Arg — belonging to the "cytogen" family of short peptide bioregulators investigated largely by a single research lineage. Its literature is narrow and overwhelmingly preclinical, which makes honest framing essential: Pinealon is an experimental reference compound, not a validated agent.
A short peptide studied in neuronal stress models. Within the cytogen class, Pinealon has been examined chiefly as a candidate neuroprotective and epigenetic regulator. Investigators have proposed that the EDR sequence influences gene expression and protein synthesis relevant to neuronal models of Alzheimer-type pathology (Khavinson et al., 2020), and the broader case for short peptides as neuroprotective probes across age has been outlined in the same gerontology tradition (Umnov et al., 2013). These are early-stage, mechanism-oriented studies rather than confirmed effects.
What the research explores. Across cell-culture and animal systems, Pinealon has been investigated along several converging lines:
The activity described here is drawn from in-vitro and animal studies; it characterises biological behaviour in experimental models and does not establish efficacy or safety in humans. Full citations are listed under the Scientific References tab.

Pinealon (EDR) is a short three-amino-acid peptide of the cytogen bioregulator class, investigated in preclinical neuronal models for neuroprotection, antioxidant defence and gene-expression effects under oxidative or hypoxic stress. Its published literature is limited and experimental in character. Condor Research supplies it strictly as a Research Use Only reference compound for in vitro and animal studies, not as a medicine, supplement or product for human or veterinary use.
Pinealon is a three-residue tripeptide (Glu-Asp-Arg) studied mainly for neuroprotective and antioxidant endpoints in neuronal models, while Epitalon is a four-residue tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) studied chiefly for telomerase and cellular-ageing endpoints. They share the short-peptide bioregulator family but differ in sequence and research focus. Both are supplied only as research-use-only reference compounds.
Both belong to the cytogen class of short peptide bioregulators, but they are studied for different tissue associations: Pinealon (EDR) is examined in neuronal and brain-ageing models, whereas Vesugen (KED) is associated in research with the vascular wall and endothelial endpoints. Their literatures are scarce and preclinical for both. Each is offered exclusively for laboratory research use, not for human or veterinary use.
No. Pinealon is a cytogen-class tripeptide studied for epigenetic and neuroprotective endpoints with a small, early-stage literature, while Dihexa is a distinct synthetic compound studied for hepatocyte growth factor–related signalling in neural-plasticity models. They probe different mechanisms and are not interchangeable research tools. Both are supplied solely as Research Use Only reference compounds.
Yes. Condor Research supplies Pinealon strictly as a Research Use Only reference compound to professionals and institutions, not as a medicine, supplement or product for human or veterinary use. Buyers are responsible for confirming import legality in their own country. Questions: info@condorresearch.com.
Pinealon is an experimental peptide with a narrow, predominantly preclinical literature concentrated in cell-culture and animal models, and much of it from a single research lineage. Findings such as effects on gene expression and neuronal protection are early-stage and have not been established in humans (Khavinson et al., 2021; Kraskovskaya et al., 2024). We characterise it honestly as a research probe, supplied for laboratory research use only and not for human or veterinary use.
The capsule is a pre-weighed, encapsulated solid format that makes a fixed quantity of reference compound convenient to store, inventory and handle in the laboratory. Each HPMC (vegan) capsule holds an accurately measured amount of material with no reconstitution required. The format is a research handling convenience and does not imply or permit any form of consumption. For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.
Each bottle contains 60 HPMC (vegan) capsules, with 10mg of Pinealon per capsule at ≥99% HPLC purity. Every batch is independently third-party tested. The per-capsule quantity is the mass of reference compound for laboratory measurement only and is not a dose for human or veterinary use.
Pinealon has CAS No. 175175-23-2, molecular formula C15H26N6O8 and a molecular weight of 418.40 g/mol, with the sequence Glu-Asp-Arg (3 aa). It presents as a white lyophilized powder that is soluble in water. These specifications are provided for research characterisation purposes only.
Yes. Every Pinealon batch is tested by an independent third-party laboratory by HPLC for identity and purity (≥99%), and each lot ships with a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis. To request the COA for your batch, contact info@condorresearch.com. The COA documents analytical quality for research use only.
Store at -20°C, protected from light and moisture, to preserve compound integrity across the stated 24-month shelf life from the manufacture date. The product is EU warehoused to support stability in transit. It is supplied for laboratory research use only and is not for human or veterinary use, ingestion, or diagnostic application.
Identity by MS confirmed in our facility. Communication around storage and handling was precise and professional.
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.
