Epithalon (also written as Epitalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide based on a sequence found in epithalamin, a peptide originally isolated from the bovine pineal gland. It was developed in the 1980s by Professor Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology and has been the subject of decades of preclinical research focused on cellular aging, telomere length, and pineal gland signaling.
