Research Information
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide, a stabilised analogue of the immune peptide tuftsin (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg) with a Pro-Gly-Pro tail. It's studied for its role in neuropeptide research, particularly the GABAergic and serotonergic pathways. Researchers are interested in how short peptides modulate anxiety-related neurotransmitter systems in cell-culture and animal-model studies. Most published work has examined its effects on enkephalin and BDNF expression in neural cell lines.
Research areas
- GABAergic pathway cell-model studies
- Enkephalin expression research
- Serotonergic signalling studies
- Stabilised peptide design comparison
Analytical methods
Identity and purity are typically confirmed at source by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry. All products are third-party tested for identity and purity.
Storage and handling
Store lyophilised at -20°C, away from moisture and direct light. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within the timeframe specified on the source datasheet.
For Research Use Only. Not for human or veterinary use.
Third-party tested
All products are third-party tested for identity and purity.
