Selank: research, prices and suppliers

A synthetic heptapeptide analog of the body's own tuftsin, studied in research on anxiety regulation and cognitive function.

Sources and dates are stated with individual entries. This new presentation is not a complete re-investigation of all data.

Selank is a heptapeptide derived from the body's own tetrapeptide tuftsin, originally developed in Russia as an anxiolytic. Research links it to anxiety-regulating and mildly cognition-supporting effects, without the sedation typical of benzodiazepines.

Facts

  • CAS number: 129954-34-3
  • Molecular weight: 751.9 g/mol
  • Amino acids: 7
  • Purity specification: ≥ 98 % (HPLC, commercial standard)

Evidence

  • A randomized trial in 62 people with generalized anxiety disorder or neurasthenia compared the anxiolytic effect of selank to medazepam, with additionally observed improvements in energy and concentration without sedation. Zozulya AA et al. 2008, Bjulleten Eksperimentalnoj Biologii i Mediciny, PMID 18454096
  • In an fMRI study with 52 healthy participants, selank administration was associated with altered functional connectivity between the right amygdala and right temporal cortex, measurable as early as 5 minutes after application. Panikratova KR et al. 2020, Doklady Biological Sciences, Bd. 490, S. 9-11

Frequently asked questions

Is selank the same as a benzodiazepine?


No. Both act on the GABA system in different ways. Selank binds at a different site and showed no sedative or dependence potential in studies, unlike classic benzodiazepines.

Where does selank come from?


Selank was developed at the Russian Academy of Sciences from the body's own peptide tuftsin, with a stabilizing addition for a longer duration in the body.

Is selank legally available in Germany?


Selank is not approved as a medication in Germany or the EU. It is offered exclusively as a research chemical for laboratory purposes, not for human use.

Questions about interpretation

What does the search “Selank protocol” mean?

“Protocol” is often used to mean a regimen. This page explains research and documented listings. It contains no doses, cycles or instructions for human use. An online regimen is not scientifically validated simply because it is widely shared.

Sources and data basis

These references come from the existing dataset. A link alone verifies neither a study claim nor supplier quality. Uncertainty remains explicit where records are undated or incomplete.
