Selank

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide developed from tuftsin, a naturally occurring peptide found in the body. Research has looked at its role in neurotransmitter and immune signaling pathways.

Overview

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide that has been widely studied in laboratory settings for its interaction with neurochemical signalling pathways associated with cognitive function, stress response, and immune regulation. It is supplied exclusively for controlled laboratory and research use and is intended only for qualified scientific investigation.

As part of Retro Wellness’ research compound range, Selank is presented with a focus on consistency, quality, and responsible sourcing. Each product is intended strictly for qualified research settings and should only be handled by individuals or organisations with the appropriate facilities, knowledge, and procedures.

Research involving Selank has explored its interaction with biological pathways associated with neurotransmitter signalling, GABAergic activity, neuropeptide regulation, immune modulation, and cellular communication within the central nervous system. It has also been investigated in broader studies examining neuroplasticity, stress-related signalling, inflammatory pathways, and molecular mechanisms across a range of experimental models. Ongoing research continues to expand understanding of its biological activity and potential relevance within neuroscience, immunology, and molecular research.

What Research Has Explored

  • Derived from the natural peptide tuftsin
  • Research has looked at GABAergic system interactions
  • Studied for its effects on BDNF expression
  • Investigated in the context of enkephalin signaling

How It Works

Selank interacts with several neurotransmitter systems, including GABA, serotonin, and dopamine. Research has looked at how it binds to and modulates GABA-A receptors. Studies have also examined how Selank affects expression of BDNF in the hippocampus and how it interacts with the enkephalin system in research models.
