| Evidence Tier | Research Compound |
|---|---|
| Category | Anti-Aging & Longevity |
| Class | Synthetic tetrapeptide bioregulator derived from pineal gland epithalamin |
| Molecular Target | Telomerase activation (TERT); pineal melatonin synthesis; antioxidant enzyme upregulation |
| Sequence | Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly (AEDG) |
| Molecular Weight | ~390.35 Da |
| CAS | 307297-39-8 |
| Parent | Pineal extract epithalamin fragment |
| Mechanism | It wakes up an enzyme called telomerase. This enzyme physically adds length back to the ends of your chromosomes (telomeres), which extends the lifespan of the cell. |
