Selank 5mg

Description

Selank Peptide Overview

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of the naturally occurring immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin. Developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, it is studied in research as a nootropic and anxiolytic peptide with effects spanning the nervous and immune systems.

BDNF and Neuroplasticity Research

Selank is studied for its influence on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression, a key regulator of neuroplasticity, learning and memory in research models.

Anxiolytic Signaling

A central area of Selank research is its interaction with GABAergic and monoamine (serotonin, dopamine) systems, studied for anxiety-related behavior in experimental models without the sedative profile of classical anxiolytics.

Enkephalin Stabilization

Selank is studied for inhibiting the enzymes that break down enkephalins, prolonging endogenous enkephalin activity, which is investigated in relation to mood and stress-response research.

Immunomodulatory Activity

As a tuftsin analog, Selank retains immunomodulatory properties and is studied for its effects on cytokine balance and immune signaling.
