Selank
A synthetic tuftsin-analogue heptapeptide studied for anxiolytic and cognitive effects, part of the Russian nootropic peptide family alongside Semax.
What it is
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide modelled on tuftsin, a naturally occurring immunomodulatory fragment, extended for stability. It is a sibling of Semax within the family of neuro-active research peptides developed in Russia. On this site it is listed for reference and is not currently sold.
What the research looks at
In research models Selank is studied for anxiolytic and cognitive or nootropic effects, with interest in mood and stress-response pathways that do not rely on classical sedation. It is frequently examined alongside Semax as part of the same nootropic peptide family. These are laboratory findings only and describe how the compound is researched, not any human use. Supplied strictly for laboratory research use only, not for human or veterinary use.
