Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of the immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg), developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics in Moscow. It has been extensively studied in Russian preclinical literature for its anxiolytic-like properties and its interactions with the GABAergic system and immune pathways.

## Research Overview

Research into Selank has examined its modulation of GABA-A receptor activity, its effects on serotonin and dopamine metabolism, and its role in enkephalin degradation inhibition. Studies have explored its immune-modulatory properties via IL-6 and other cytokine pathways. Selank is frequently studied alongside Semax due to complementary neuropeptide mechanisms.
