PINEALON

---

Pinealon is a short synthetic tripeptide composed of Glu–Asp–Arg (Glutamic acid, Aspartic acid, Arginine).

It was developed as a neuroprotective and cognitive-support peptide, originally researched by the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology.

Studies suggest that Pinealon may help protect neurons, regulate gene expression, and support healthy brain function and longevity, especially under oxidative or metabolic stress.

Pinealon acts on gene expression and protein synthesis pathways involved in neural repair, antioxidant defense, and cognitive function.

Key mechanisms observed in research:

1. Enhances neuronal metabolism – improves oxygen and glucose utilization in brain cells
    
2. Regulates gene expression – supports DNA/RNA synthesis and repair
    
3. Protects neurons from oxidative damage – reduces free radical activity
    
4. Improves sleep and circadian balance – linked to pineal gland and melatonin regulation
    
5. Supports memory and learning – increases synaptic signaling efficiency
