Overview
A synthetic analog of epithalamin, a peptide preparation derived from the pineal gland. Studied primarily by a Russian research group (Khavinson et al.) for potential telomerase-activating effects in certain cell-line studies, alongside circadian-rhythm regulation.
Studied for
Described as research context — not a treatment claim.Telomere-length and cellular-aging research, sleep-quality research.
Evidence & compliance note
Much of the foundational literature comes from a single research group's animal and in-vitro/cell-line studies rather than independently replicated human randomized trials — one of the thinner human-evidence entries in the catalog.
Preparation & storage
Lyophilized. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water per the general reference below.
General reconstitution & storage reference for lyophilized peptides:
- 1Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) rather than plain sterile water — the preservative meaningfully extends usable shelf life.
- 2In bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 2–8°C, typically usable for ~28–30 days. In plain sterile water (no preservative): 7–14 days.
- 3Lyophilized (unmixed) vials are stable at refrigerated or, for some peptides, frozen temperatures for extended periods prior to reconstitution.
- 4Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, direct light/UV exposure, and heat — these are the primary drivers of peptide degradation.
- 5Reconstitute gently: inject the water down the inside wall of the vial and swirl — don't shake, which can denature the peptide structure.
Precautions
General peptide handling precautions apply.
