Molecular formula C15H26N6O8; molecular weight 418.40 g/mol; supplied as a 10 mg lyophilized vial at HPLC ≥99% purity. For laboratory research use only; not for human or veterinary use.
Some of the shortest peptides in biology may carry instructions that reach all the way to the genome. Pinealon is a synthetic tripeptide, Glu-Asp-Arg (the "EDR" peptide), developed within the field of short peptide bioregulators. Composed of just three amino acids, it is studied as a model for how minimal peptide sequences may influence neuronal viability, oxidative balance, and gene expression in cell and animal systems.
A three-letter word in the peptide-bioregulator alphabet. Research on short peptides proposes that sequences such as EDR are small enough to enter cells and even interact with DNA, potentially modulating the expression of specific genes — an epigenetic-style hypothesis that distinguishes this peptide class from receptor-only signaling molecules (Khavinson et al., 2020). Pinealon is frequently examined alongside other tripeptide bioregulators as a tool for probing these proposed mechanisms.

Pinealon is a synthetic short peptide bioregulator with the sequence Glu-Asp-Arg (the EDR tripeptide), studied in neuroprotection and cellular-aging research. It belongs to the family of short "peptide bioregulators" investigated for effects reaching the genome in research models. Condor Research supplies it as a 10 mg lyophilized vial at ≥99% HPLC purity, for in-vitro laboratory use only.
Both are short synthetic peptide bioregulators, but they differ in sequence and research framing. Pinealon is the tripeptide Glu-Asp-Arg (EDR), emphasized in neuroprotection research, while Epitalon is the tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly (AEDG), modelled on the pineal peptide complex and studied in cellular-aging research. Condor Research offers each as a separate ≥99% HPLC, research-use-only reference compound.
Pinealon (Glu-Asp-Arg) is a tripeptide bioregulator studied mainly for neuroprotective mechanisms, whereas Epitalon (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) is a tetrapeptide associated with the pineal complex and longevity research. They share the short-peptide-bioregulator class but differ by one residue in length and by research emphasis. Both are supplied as separate ≥99% HPLC, research-use-only reference materials, each with a batch COA.
Pinealon is a Glu-Asp-Arg tripeptide bioregulator studied in neuroprotection and aging research, while P21 (P021) is a synthetic BDNF-mimetic neurotrophic tetrapeptide used in neurodegeneration research. Both carry neuroprotective framing but derive from different concepts — peptide bioregulation versus neurotrophic-factor mimicry. Condor Research supplies each as a distinct ≥99% HPLC, research-use-only reference compound.
Pinealon (Glu-Asp-Arg) is a short peptide bioregulator studied in neuroprotection and cellular-aging contexts, whereas DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) is a naturally occurring nonapeptide investigated in sleep and neuromodulation research. They address different research questions through unrelated mechanisms. Both are offered as separate ≥99% HPLC, research-use-only reference materials for in-vitro laboratory study.
Pinealon (EDR tripeptide) is selected when a research model is oriented toward neuroprotective mechanisms, while Epitalon (AEDG tetrapeptide) is more associated with cellular-aging and telomere-related research. The choice depends on which short-peptide-bioregulator framing fits your in-vitro study. Both remain research-use-only reference materials with no human or veterinary application.
Yes. The tripeptide sequence Glu-Asp-Arg (CAS 175175-23-2) is verified for each lot by an independent third-party laboratory using HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity. Results are documented on the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis, which can be requested before ordering at info@condorresearch.com.
Yes. Pinealon 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, protocols, or human-use guidance. Purchase is limited to qualified professionals and institutions aged 18 or over.
Yes. Each Pinealon 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 verifying ≥99% purity. To request the COA for the current lot before ordering, contact info@condorresearch.com.
For analytical laboratory preparation only, Pinealon is water-soluble and can be reconstituted with a sterile aqueous diluent; the chosen volume 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.
Lyophilised cake was uniform and dissolved fully. Would appreciate a digital COA portal, but the PDF on request worked fine.
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.
