Selank is a synthetic research heptapeptide (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro) derived from the immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin. It has been widely studied for its role in modulating GABAergic transmission, neuropeptide signaling, and cytokine-regulated immune pathways. Preclinical findings suggest that Selank influences expression of BDNF, IL-6, and enzymes involved in monoamine metabolism, positioning it as a versatile tool in neuroimmune and neuroendocrine signaling research.
This 11mg vial of lyophilized Selank is prepared for high-precision experimental protocols involving neurochemical, behavioral, or gene transcriptional endpoints in laboratory models.
- Peptide Sequence: Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro
- Derived From: Tuftsin (natural immunomodulatory peptide)
- Primary Pathways: GABAergic signaling, neuroimmune cytokine modulation, BDNF and IL-6 transcriptional regulation
- Experimental Focus: Neurochemical signaling, stress and anxiety models, transcriptional profiling, immune modulation
- Format: 11mg lyophilized powder, research-grade purity (≥99%)
- For Laboratory Use Only: Not for human or clinical use
- GABAergic System Modulation
Selank is widely used in studies investigating central GABA-A receptor signaling. It is evaluated for its ability to influence inhibitory synaptic tone and neuroplasticity-related mechanisms in rodent brain tissue models. - Neuroimmune Regulation and Cytokine Activity
In controlled in-vitro systems and in-vivo experiments, Selank has been shown to alter the expression of interleukins such as IL-6 and modulate pathways associated with immune–neural crosstalk, particularly in inflammation and stress-related studies. - Neurotransmitter-Linked Gene Expression
Selank is investigated for its transcriptional influence on BDNF and other genes associated with dopaminergic and serotonergic systems. Researchers often measure its effects on enkephalin-degrading enzymes and monoamine metabolism. - Stress Response and Behavioral Studies
Rodent behavioral paradigms using Selank include elevated plus maze, open field, and restraint stress tests, aimed at exploring peptide-based regulation of anxiety and emotional behavior under CNS-relevant conditions.
5. Peptide Stability and Pharmacodynamics
Due to its synthetic structure and neurobiological relevance, Selank is utilized in pharmacokinetic and receptor engagement studies, especially those analyzing long-acting peptide stability in biological systems.
Q: What is Selank primarily used for in research?
A: Selank is used to explore neuroimmune signaling, stress-related gene expression, GABA receptor interactions, and neurotrophic pathways such as BDNF in animal and cellular models.
Q: How does Selank differ from Semax?
A: While both are heptapeptides with CNS activity, Selank is derived from tuftsin and primarily influences GABAergic and immune pathways. Semax, on the other hand, modulates BDNF and monoaminergic signaling more directly.
Q: Is Selank used for behavior-related studies?
A: Yes. It is employed in rodent studies to assess behavioral responses linked to anxiety, emotional regulation, and cognitive stress via CNS peptide signaling networks.
Q: Can Selank be used clinically or as a treatment?
A: No. Selank is not approved for human consumption or therapy. It is strictly intended for preclinical laboratory and experimental research use only.
Q: How is Selank typically administered in research?
A: In experimental settings, it is administered intranasally or subcutaneously in rodents, using carefully dosed protocols. This 11mg format allows for flexible dilution depending on study design.
Storage & Handling
All peptides are supplied as sterile, lyophilized powder and are stable when handled correctly.
- On arrival: Store vials in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight.
- Long-term (powder): For optimal longevity, keep lyophilized peptides refrigerated to help maintain integrity.
- After reconstitution: Use an appropriate research diluent (for example, BAC water). Store the reconstituted solution in the refrigerator and use within 20–30 days for best stability.
Note: Minimize exposure to moisture and repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Follow your institution's safety procedures when handling research materials.
