Pinealon at a glance

With only three amino acids, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and arginine, Pinealon is among the smallest compounds in the catalog. It comes from the short-peptide bioregulator program associated with Vladimir Khavinson's group in St. Petersburg, which designed a series of very short peptides each linked to a particular tissue. Pinealon is the member of that series connected with the brain and nervous system. Its expected molecular weight is about 418.4 g/mol, and it is supplied as freeze-dried powder.

Lab testing

There is no public lab report for this listing yet. We can ask the brand for the batch COA before you order. Many buyers also split an independent HPLC test with others who bought the same batch.

Bought through escrow: the brand is only paid after you confirm delivery. If the parcel never arrives, or an independent test shows the wrong compound or a significant under-fill, open a claim before releasing payment.

What it is studied for

Pinealon is not known to bind a specific cell-surface receptor. The leading hypothesis from its originators is that a peptide this small can enter cells and reach the nucleus, where it may interact with DNA or chromatin and influence which genes are expressed. In cultured neurons and animal models, reported effects include lower levels of reactive oxygen species, reduced cell death under hypoxia and changes in signaling proteins tied to cell survival. These findings come mostly from one research network and await independent confirmation.

Research and regulatory status

Work on Pinealon consists of cell-culture experiments and animal studies of memory, brain aging, circadian rhythm and hypoxic injury, much of it published in Russian-language journals. Independent replication outside the originating groups is limited. It has not been tested in registered controlled human trials and holds no approval as a medicine in the United States or Europe, so it is best regarded as an early-stage research compound.

Checking the lab data

Short tripeptides are hard to tell apart by appearance or purity alone, so the report should include mass spectrometry matching Glu-Asp-Arg at about 418.4 g/mol. Ideally it also confirms residue order, since a rearranged sequence such as Asp-Glu-Arg has the same mass. HPLC purity with the chromatogram, measured content per vial and a description of a white freeze-dried powder complete the picture, along with the testing lab's name and batch.

Buyer questions

Why does such a short peptide attract research interest?

Its originators argue that very short peptides can cross cell and nuclear membranes and act directly on gene regulation, a different idea from the receptor-based model used for most peptide hormones. Small size also makes synthesis simple and inexpensive. The hypothesis is interesting but has limited independent support so far.

Is Pinealon related to the pineal gland?

The name suggests a link, and the compound is grouped with brain-related bioregulators, but published work focuses on neurons and brain tissue in general rather than the pineal gland specifically. It is also distinct from Epitalon, the tetrapeptide in the same family most often associated with pineal research.
