What Is Selank?
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of the naturally occurring immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin, developed for neuroscience research. It is widely used as a tool compound in anxiety, cognition, and neuroimmune signaling models. Greatest Peptides supplies Selank as a >99% pure lyophilized powder for laboratory research use only.
Selank, a synthetic heptapeptide investigated in CNS research (lyophilized). For research use only.
Purity: ≥98% HPLC (see batch COA); identity confirmed by LC-MS. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) is available for each lot. For laboratory and research use only. Not for human or animal consumption.
Selank Research Overview
In published preclinical literature, Selank has been investigated for its influence on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression, GABAergic and serotonergic signaling, and modulation of interleukins and other immune markers. As a stabilized tuftsin analog, it is frequently used as a model compound in studies of anxiolytic and neuroimmune mechanisms.
These observations describe outcomes reported in laboratory and animal research models only. Selank is a research chemical — it is not a dietary supplement, drug, or therapeutic product, and nothing here describes effects in humans.
