Selank

Description

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from tuftsin, an endogenous tetrapeptide associated with immune-related biological activity. Its amino-acid sequence is Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro, giving Selank peptides a defined seven-amino-acid structure for controlled biochemical and cellular studies. Published research identifies Selank as a tuftsin analog and has examined its biological activity across several experimental models.

Selank peptide research has investigated neurological signaling, gene-expression responses, neurotrophic pathways, immune-related processes, and interactions with peptide-degrading enzyme systems. Additional Selank research has examined behavioral and biochemical responses in animal models, including changes involving BDNF and inflammation-associated gene expression. These findings remain dependent on the experimental model and should not be interpreted as established effects in humans.
