The design added a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide extension to tuftsin's natural TKPR sequence — preserving the parent peptide's biological activities while conferring resistance to enzymatic degradation that would otherwise severely limit effective half-life.    \u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp class=\"prod-para\"\u003e        Selank is approved as an anxiolytic and nootropic medication in Russia, where it has accumulated a defined safety profile through clinical use — a regulatory distinction that provides researchers with a translational framework not available for purely experimental compounds.    \u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp class=\"prod-para\"\u003e        Mechanistically, Selank operates across overlapping neurological and immunological systems. Its primary anxiolytic mechanism involves modulation of GABA-A receptor function — increasing receptor sensitivity to GABA, producing anxiolytic and stress-relieving effects through the same receptor system targeted by benzodiazepines, but without sedation, tolerance development, or dependency risks. Independently, Selank upregulates BDNF and NGF expression, suggesting convergent anxiolytic and neurotrophic mechanisms.    \u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp class=\"prod-para\"\u003e        The enkephalin system interaction adds another dimension: Selank stabilizes enkephalins against enzymatic degradation — extending the action of these endogenous opioid peptides and modulating their contribution to stress response regulation. Immunologically, tuftsin's parent activity (macrophage and NK cell activation) is partially preserved in Selank, creating bidirectional neuroimmune relevance for models studying stress-induced immune suppression.    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"prod-section\"\u003e    \u003cdiv class=\"prod-section-label\"\u003e        \u003ci class=\"ti ti-atom\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003ePhysicochemical Data    \u003c\/div\u003e    \u003cdiv class=\"table-scroll\"\u003e        \u003ctable class=\"prod-table\"\u003e            \u003cthead\u003e                \u003ctr\u003e                    \u003cth\u003eCompound\u003c\/th\u003e                    \u003cth\u003eFormula\u003c\/th\u003e                    \u003cth\u003eMW\u003c\/th\u003e                    \u003cth\u003eCAS No.\u003c\/th\u003e                    \u003cth\u003eSequence \/ Structure\u003c\/th\u003e                    \u003cth\u003eReceptor \/ Target\u003c\/th\u003e                \u003c\/tr\u003e            \u003c\/thead\u003e            \u003ctbody\u003e                \u003ctr class=\"row-alt\"\u003e                    \u003ctd class=\"td-bold\"\u003eSelank (TP-7)\u003c\/td\u003e                    \u003ctd\u003eC33H57N9O8\u003c\/td\u003e                    \u003ctd\u003e751.9 g\/mol\u003c\/td\u003e                    \u003ctd\u003e129954-34-3\u003c\/td\u003e                    \u003ctd\u003eTKPRPGP — tuftsin TKPR + Pro-Gly-Pro C-terminal extension\u003c\/td\u003e                    \u003ctd\u003eGABA-A receptor modulator; BDNF\/NGF upregulator; enkephalin stabilizer\u003c\/td\u003e                \u003c\/tr\u003e            \u003c\/tbody\u003e        \u003c\/table\u003e    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"General Peptide","offers":[{"title":"1 Vial","offer_id":50856836301047,"sku":null,"price":47.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Vials","offer_id":50856836333815,"sku":null,"price":127.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Vials","offer_id":50856836366583,"sku":null,"price":188.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/1485\/0807\/files\/Cognitive-Neuro_Selank.jpg?v=1781181268","url":"https:\/\/generalpeptide.com\/products\/selank","provider":"General Peptide","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
