Pinealon Research Guide

Full name: Pinealon (Glu-Asp-Arg)

A short synthetic tripeptide (Glu-Asp-Arg) from the bioregulator family studied in Russia. Investigated for neuroprotection, antioxidant effects, and support of brain function during aging and oxidative stress.

How Pinealon Works

As a peptide bioregulator it is proposed to penetrate cells and interact with DNA to modulate gene expression in neural tissue, reducing oxidative damage and supporting neuronal survival and protein synthesis.

Dosing Protocol

• Typical dose: ~5-10 mg per course day (research)
• Frequency: Daily during a short course
• Duration: 10-20 day courses
• Route: Subcutaneous or intranasal

Reported Benefits

• Neuroprotective and antioxidant effects (research)
• Supports cognition under stress/aging
• May support healthy sleep-wake regulation
• Short-course bioregulator profile

Potential Side Effects

• Limited human safety data
• Mild injection site reactions
• Generally reported as well tolerated in small studies
