Long Description:

Selank is a synthetic analog of the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin, modified to increase metabolic stability and enhance its central nervous system activity. It has been widely researched for its anxiolytic, nootropic, and neuroprotective properties without the sedative or dependency risks associated with traditional anxiolytics.

Mechanistically, Selank is believed to modulate the expression of genes involved in GABAergic and serotonergic neurotransmission, contributing to mood stabilization and stress resilience. It also influences brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels and exhibits anti-inflammatory effects, supporting its use in studies focused on cognitive decline, anxiety-related disorders, and neuroinflammation.

Selank has also shown potential in regulating immune responses and promoting recovery from stress-induced neurological dysfunction. Its favorable safety profile and targeted neurochemical activity make it a promising candidate in research on anxiety, cognitive impairment, and neuroendocrine balance.
