Epitalon
Postulated mechanisms include modulation of gene expression in pinealocytes, telomerase activation (observed in cell culture studies) and influence on melatonin synthesis. A defined primary receptor is not established; the mechanistic basis rests on in-vitro and animal data from the Khavinson group.
Teriparatid
Teriparatide corresponds to the biologically active first 34 amino acids of human parathyroid hormone and binds the PTH-1 receptor on bone and kidney cells. The literature describes that intermittent receptor activation preferentially stimulates the activity of bone-forming osteoblasts, whereas continuously elevated PTH exposure (as in hyperparathyroidism) tends to favor bone resorption. This time-dependent difference is regarded as the mechanistic basis for the bone-anabolic effect observed in studies.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Epitalon and Teriparatid?
- Epitalon is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Teriparatid is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". Epitalon: Synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) derived from the pineal extract epithalamin (V. Khavinson, St. Petersburg). Investigated in the Russian research and anti-ageing context; Western controlled trials are largely absent. No medicines approval in EU or US. Teriparatid: Teriparatide is the recombinant N-terminal fragment 1-34 of human parathyroid hormone (PTH). It is regulatory-approved and studied in the scientific literature as a bone-anabolic agent for the treatment of osteoporosis. Unlike antiresorptive agents, studies attribute to it an effect that stimulates new bone formation. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Epitalon or Teriparatid?
- The highest available evidence level is "Humane studie" for Epitalon and "Humane RCT" for Teriparatid. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
- What is the legal status of Epitalon and Teriparatid in Germany and the United States?
- Duitsland: Epitalon — Niet goedgekeurd, Teriparatid — Op recept. Verenigde Staten: Epitalon — Niet goedgekeurd, Teriparatid — Op recept. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
