Buy Cartalax Europe. Cartilage and bone bioregulator tripeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp) for anti-ageing and musculoskeletal research. ≥99% purity. Fast EU delivery.
What is Cartalax?
Cartalax is a synthetic bioregulatory tripeptide with the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp (AED), developed as part of Professor Vladimir Khavinson’s bioregulatory peptide programme at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. Cartalax specifically targets cartilage and bone tissue, modulating gene expression in chondrocytes and osteoblasts to promote extracellular matrix synthesis, chondroprotection, and skeletal tissue maintenance. Notably, Cartalax has also demonstrated anti-ageing properties through telomere length preservation and epigenetic regulation. For published research, see PubMed studies on Cartalax{:target=“_blank” rel=“noopener”}.
Cartalax is an important research tool for studying cartilage bioregulation, musculoskeletal ageing, anti-ageing epigenetics, and the effects of short peptides on connective tissue biology.
Best-Peptides supplies research-grade Cartalax with guaranteed ≥99% purity and full analytical documentation.

FAQ
Cartalax is a cartilage bioregulatory tripeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp) studied for its effects on chondrocyte function, extracellular matrix synthesis, and cartilage tissue maintenance. Additional research focuses on its anti-ageing properties including telomere length preservation and epigenetic modulation.
Cartalax acts as a tissue-specific bioregulator targeting chondrocytes and osteoblasts, modulating gene expression involved in collagen synthesis, proteoglycan production, and extracellular matrix homeostasis in musculoskeletal tissues.
Cartalax interacts with chromatin in cartilage and bone cells, modulating the expression of genes involved in chondroprotection, osteogenesis, telomerase activity, and anti-inflammatory responses. It is considered an epigenetic bioregulator.
Store lyophilised Cartalax at -20°C for long-term stability. Once reconstituted, keep at 2-8°C and use within 4 weeks. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Our Cartalax is ≥99% pure as verified by HPLC. Each batch includes a Certificate of Analysis with purity data and mass spectrometry identity confirmation.
Yes, Cartalax is frequently studied in combination with other Khavinson bioregulators such as Epitalon (pineal/anti-ageing), Crystagen (immune), and Vesugen (vascular). Researchers should consider complementary musculoskeletal and anti-ageing pathways.
Reconstitute in sterile bacteriostatic water. Add solvent slowly along the vial wall and gently swirl to dissolve. Cartalax is highly soluble and dissolves readily in aqueous solution.
Cartalax is available in 20mg vials (10 × 20mg per pack) for research applications.
