A tuftsin-derived neuropeptide studied in stress-response, mood, and cognition models.
For laboratory research use only. Not for human or animal consumption.
Research overview
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from tuftsin, an immune-modulating peptide, and is best known in neuropeptide research for stress-response and cognition models. It is often discussed near Semax, but its research identity is more centered on mood, stress signaling, and neurochemical regulation.
Mechanistic research points to GABAergic signaling, enkephalin metabolism, monoamine systems, and BDNF-linked pathways. Study interest includes anxiety-like behavior models, cognitive performance, stress adaptation, and immune-neural signaling.
Much of the human literature comes from Russia, while the broader mechanism picture rests on animal and cell studies. Outside that context, Selank remains an investigational research compound.
Storage quick reference
