Tetrapeptide

Epithalon

Epithalon has been studied for telomerase activity and telomere dynamics in cultured human fibroblasts. Cell-culture results are not evidence of human longevity.

Mechanism and findings

In vitro · Study formulation · Human fetal fibroblast cultures

Telomerase activity

Cultured fibroblasts showed telomerase activation and telomere elongation; organism lifespan was not measured.

Literature findings; refer to the model and formulation studied.

Mechanism of action

Epithalon — tetrapeptide. The literature identity must be matched to the documented chemical form and composition of the supplied material.

In human fetal fibroblasts without detectable telomerase activity, Epithalon addition was associated with catalytic-subunit expression, enzyme activity and telomere elongation. This cellular design does not measure human lifespan or establish a clinical anti-aging effect.
