What is Selank?
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analogue of the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin, developed by the Institute of Molecular Genetics in Russia. It has been approved in Russia for anxiety and asthenic disorders and is among the most extensively researched anxiolytic peptides in the world. Selank primarily acts via the enkephalinase inhibition pathway, increasing enkephalin availability in the brain, which produces anxiolytic and mood-stabilizing effects without sedation or dependency risk in research models.
VELTRIDE supplies Selank 5mg lyophilized powder at ≥98% HPLC-verified purity with Certificate of Analysis, shipped discreetly across Canada from West Kelowna, BC. Canadian researchers studying anxiety models, immune regulation, and nootropic compounds frequently select Selank for its dual anxiolytic and immunomodulatory profile.
Research Highlights
- Anxiolytic effects without sedation, tolerance, or dependence in animal models
- Inhibits enkephalinase — increases endogenous enkephalin levels
- Immunomodulatory — regulates IL-6, interferon, and T-cell activity
- Antidepressant-like effects in forced swim and tail suspension models
- Cognitive enhancement — improves memory and learning in rodent studies
- Approved drug in Russia (Selank nasal solution) for anxiety-asthenic disorders
- Complementary nootropic profile to Semax in combined CNS research
Selank vs Semax
Selank focuses on anxiolytic and immunomodulatory research via enkephalin pathways, while Semax targets cognitive enhancement via BDNF. Many researchers combine both for comprehensive nootropic and anxiolytic protocols. Epithalon is also paired for longevity-focused CNS research.
