Selank

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro) derived from the naturally occurring immunoregulatory peptide tuftsin. It was developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences and is studied primarily as an anxiolytic peptide.

Research associates Selank with modulation of the GABAergic, dopaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmitter systems. Electrophysiological work has reported increased inhibitory synaptic activity, and studies suggest it influences expression of genes involved in neurotransmission.

Beyond its anxiolytic profile, studies describe nootropic, antiasthenic and immunomodulatory properties. It is generally characterized in research as a calming rather than sedating compound.

Store the lyophilized powder cold (-20°C for long-term storage), protected from light. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water added gently down the vial wall, swirl rather than shake, and refrigerate the reconstituted solution at 2–8°C.
