Pinealon 20mg
Pinealon is the synthetic tripeptide Glu-Asp-Arg (EDR), one of the short peptide bioregulators developed in the Russian research tradition associated with Khavinson and colleagues. It was derived from the polypeptide preparation Cortexin. Nearly all of the published work on it comes from that one research group, largely in rat models and cultured cerebellar granule cells, and has not been widely replicated elsewhere. This listing contains 20mg of lyophilized material. Supplied strictly for in-vitro research and laboratory use only. Not for human or animal use.

Mechanism of Action
Khavinson and colleagues report that EDR restricts reactive oxygen species accumulation in cerebellar granule cells, neutrophils and PC12 cells under oxidative stress, and alters the time course of ERK 1/2 activation. Khavinson et al. (2020) propose direct interaction with DNA as the basis for the gene-expression effects. That proposed mechanism is the group's own hypothesis rather than an independently established one.
