Overview

Product details.

Selank 5mg — Tuftsin Analog

Tuftsin is a four-amino-acid immunomodulatory peptide (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg) produced naturally during immunoglobulin degradation. On its own, it degrades quickly. Selank solves that problem by appending a Pro-Gly-Pro tail — the same aminopeptidase-resistant extension used in Semax — creating a stabilized heptapeptide that bridges immunomodulatory and neuropeptide research.

Research directions

Three main lines of investigation appear in the published literature. First, enkephalin pathway interactions — Selank’s effects on carboxypeptidase activity and enkephalinase enzyme kinetics in neurochemistry assays. Second, neurotrophic factor expression — BDNF gene expression and GABA receptor modulation in neuronal cultures, plus serotonin metabolite profiling and dopaminergic system interactions. Third, cytokine system research — IL-6 pathway interactions and inflammatory mediator expression in immune cell models, connecting its tuftsin heritage to immunomodulatory function.

Selank vs Semax

Same lab, same PGP tail, different parent sequences. Selank derives from tuftsin (immunomodulatory). Semax derives from ACTH(4-10) (neuroendocrine). The published literature examines them in distinct but overlapping contexts — Selank for immunomodulatory and enkephalinase work, Semax for neurotrophic factor and neuropeptide studies. Heritage Labs USA carries both.
