Description

Selank

(Synthetic Heptapeptide – Anxiolytic & Cognitive Modulator)

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analog derived from the endogenous peptide Tuftsin, engineered to modulate neuropeptide activity within the central nervous system. Developed as a more stable and longer-acting variant of tuftsin, Selank has been studied in preclinical and early clinical research for its potential neuromodulatory, anxiolytic, and cognitive regulatory properties. Research indicates that Selank may influence pathways involved in mood regulation, stress response, and cognitive processing. Experimental studies have explored its interactions with neurotransmitter systems and immune regulatory mechanisms associated with neurochemical balance.

Mechanism of Action

(Based on Preclinical and Clinical Research)

Regulation of monoamine neurotransmitters: Research suggests Selank may influence levels of neurotransmitters such as

Serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine within the central nervous system.

GABAergic modulation: Experimental models indicate indirect interaction with the

GABA system, contributing to anxiolytic signaling without significant sedative effects.

Tuftsin receptor interaction: Derived from tuftsin, Selank may interact with immune-related receptors involved in regulation of immune homeostasis.

Neurotrophic factor influence: Research has explored potential increases in

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), supporting neuronal plasticity and cognitive processes.

Stress-response regulation: Experimental models demonstrate normalization of behavioral responses to stress and reduction of anxiety-associated markers.
