NA Epithalon (50mg)
NA Epithalon (N-Acetyl Epithalon) is an N-acetylated variant of the Epithalon tetrapeptide investigated in research for improved enzymatic stability while retaining the telomerase-modulating and pineal-axis effects of the parent compound.
About NA Epithalon
NA Epithalon is the N-acetylated form of the Epithalon tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly), with an acetyl group added to the N-terminal alanine. This modification reduces susceptibility to aminopeptidase-mediated degradation, extending the compound’s stability and apparent bioavailability relative to standard Epithalon. The 50mg vial size accommodates longer cycle research protocols.
Mechanism in Research Literature
Research on NA Epithalon has documented:
- Retention of the telomerase-modulating activity associated with parent Epithalon
- Improved resistance to aminopeptidase degradation due to N-acetyl modification
- Extended circulating half-life compared to standard Epithalon
- Modulation of pineal gland function and melatonin rhythm
- Effects on gene expression related to cellular aging
Research Context
NA Epithalon has been investigated in studies exploring:
- Peptide stability modifications and pharmacokinetic optimization
- Telomerase regulation and telomere biology
- Pineal function and circadian regulation research
- Alternative delivery route research (intranasal, oral) made possible by improved stability
- Comparative pharmacology vs. parent Epithalon
