Selank
NootropicsApproved (Russia)Also known as: TP-7
A synthetic anxiolytic and nootropic peptide derived from tuftsin, studied for anxiety, cognitive enhancement, and immune modulation..
Overview
Key Takeaways
- →Anxiolytic effects without sedation
- →Improved cognitive function under stress
- →Enhanced BDNF expression
- →Half-life: ~2–3 minutes IV; intranasal bioavailability extends effective duration to several hours
At A Glance
Selank is a synthetic analog of the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin (threonyl-lysyl-prolyl-arginine) with a Gly-Pro extension for stability. It modulates GABA-ergic and serotonergic neurotransmission, increases BDNF expression, stabilizes enkephalins (endogenous opioid peptides), and modulates IL-6 and T-helper cell balance. Produces anxiolytic effects comparable to benzodiazepines without sedation or dependence.
