Selank (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro) is a synthetic heptapeptide developed as a stable analog of the endogenous immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin. Developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, it has been the subject of substantial pharmacological investigation for its neurological activity profile, particularly regarding anxiety-related signaling pathways and cognitive function modulation.

Mechanism of Action

Selank’s primary research interest lies in its modulation of GABAergic and monoaminergic neurotransmission. Research documents its influence on GABA-A receptor subunit expression and modulation of serotonin metabolism — specifically, its effect on enzymatic serotonin breakdown in brain tissue. Selank also stabilizes enkephalin peptides against enzymatic degradation, which may contribute to its anxiolytic profile in research models. Importantly, it does not bind directly to benzodiazepine receptor sites, distinguishing its mechanism from classical anxiolytics and making it a useful tool for studying non-BZD anxiolytic pathways.

Research History

Selank originated from Soviet-era pharmacological research programs investigating synthetic tuftsin derivatives for neurological applications. Unlike many peptides of this era, selank accumulated a substantive published literature base including human clinical research conducted in Russia and Eastern Europe. Studies examined anxiety measures, memory performance, and attention under controlled conditions. Its anxiolytic profile without sedation or dependency signals generated sustained research interest in the peptide anxiolytic compound class.

Active Research Areas

Ongoing research examines: GABA-A receptor subunit expression modulation; serotonin system influence in neurological stress models; neuroprotective mechanisms in oxidative stress paradigms; comparative analysis against other peptide anxiolytics; and combination studies with semax for complementary nootropic profiling.

Where can I read the research on selank?

We do not paraphrase research findings on this page. For a compound supplied for laboratory use, the primary sources are what matter, and they are public: the peer-reviewed record is indexed on PubMed, and registered clinical studies are listed on ClinicalTrials.gov. Both are maintained by the U.S. National Institutes of Health and are free to search.

How much does selank cost?

Selank (10mg) is $39.95 per vial, in stock and available for immediate dispatch — that works out to $4.00 per mg, which is the figure worth comparing across suppliers, since headline vial prices are not comparable when vial sizes differ. There are no hidden surcharges, no payment-processor fees added at checkout, and no minimum order. Delivery is costed separately and transparently: same-day Bay Area courier from $19.95 depending on your city, or flat-rate FedEx 2Day nationwide. You can check the exact courier fee for your city before you order. Volume and institutional pricing is available for laboratories ordering in quantity — email support@sfbayareapeptides.com with your requirements.

How is selank tested?

Every lot is independently tested by a third-party laboratory, with identity and purity confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Testing is carried out on each lot before it is released for sale.

Selank and Semax — how they differ

Selank derives from tuftsin, an immunomodulatory peptide, and is investigated in anxiolytic and neuroimmune research contexts. Semax (10mg) derives from a fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone and is investigated for BDNF expression, attention and neuroprotection. Different parent molecules, different endpoints — but overlapping enough literature that laboratories in our Neurocognitive Research category commonly acquire both, often adding NAD+ (500mg) for cellular-energy work.
