Evidence profile
Epithalon (50 mg Vial)
Epitalon research includes telomere biology and neuroendocrine experiments. These findings need careful separation from claims about human lifespan.
01
Product identity
Epithalamine is a different pineal-gland peptide preparation. Similar names do not establish equivalent material.
02
What has been studied
Primary laboratory study
Telomeres in cell lines
- Population or model
- Normal and cancer-derived human cell lines
- Study route or material
- Cell culture
A laboratory study examined normal and cancer-derived human cell lines. A telomere change in culture does not show that a treatment extends human life.[1]
Primary preclinical study / Primary human study
Aging-model hormone measurements
- Population or model
- Female rhesus monkeys of different ages; Older people with coronary disease and accelerated cardiovascular aging
- Study route or material
- Experimental animal administration; Pineal-gland peptide preparation
An older experiment examined melatonin and cortisol patterns in monkeys. An often-cited older human paper concerns epithalamine, rather than automatically establishing the effects of isolated epitalon.[2][3]
03
Evidence limits
Human longevity benefit and long-term safety of the exact supplied tetrapeptide are not established by the reviewed sources.
The reviewed sources do not establish patient instructions for this product. No dose, cycle, preparation method or administration schedule is provided here.
04
Formulation and handling evidence
Actual quantity for each vial size; the current descriptions conflict.
Sequence and formulation identity, with no substitution of epithalamine evidence.
A compatible diluent, prepared-solution stability and container/device compatibility must be supported for the exact formulation. The diluent manufacturer’s instructions do not supply a universal storage period for every dissolved substance.[5]
05
Approval context
This profile has not established Canadian authorization of the linked research product.[4]
