Selank

Selank is a synthetic research peptide based on tuftsin, a natural peptide linked to immune function. Researchers study Selank because it sits at the meeting point between brain signals and immune signals. Research has looked at stress and anxiety-related behavior, memory, gene activity, brain growth signals, and chemical messengers used by nerve cells. Selank is interesting because it is not built around just one common brain receptor. Instead, researchers use it to explore how several brain and immune pathways may work together during stress and learning.
