Selank (Cognitive Enhancement Peptide) – TP-7

Product Overview

Selank is an advanced synthetic heptapeptide created by conjugating a Pro-Gly-Pro extension to the endogenous immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin. Originally developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, it represents a significant breakthrough in neuropharmacological research. Selank is uniquely characterized by its ability to provide potent anxiolytic effects without the sedation, cognitive impairment, or tolerance typical of traditional GABA-enhancing compounds, making it an invaluable tool for studying the intersection of stress response, immune function, and cognitive performance.

Technical Specifications

• Molecular Formula: C33H57N11O9

• Molecular Weight: 751.87 g/mol

• CAS Number: 129954-34-3

• Sequence Profile: Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro (tuftsin extended with a Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide sequence for plasma stability and enhanced CNS penetration)

Mechanism of Action

Selank exhibits a unique dual-timescale pharmacology, producing immediate neurochemical shifts combined with sustained gene expression alterations:

• GABAergic and Enkephalin System Modulation (Acute): Rapidly influences GABA-A receptor sensitivity and inhibits enkephalin-degrading enzymes, increasing endogenous enkephalin levels for potent, non-sedating anxiolysis.

• Neurotrophin Upregulation (Sustained): Stimulates the expression of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), and neurotrophin-3, enhancing hippocampal synaptic plasticity and long-term potentiation (LTP).

• Immunomodulation: Retains the receptor activity of its parent molecule, tuftsin, modulating over 50 inflammation-related genes, enhancing phagocytic activity, and balancing pro-inflammatory/anti-inflammatory cytokine ratios (such as IL-6).

• HPA Axis Regulation: Mitigates stress-induced spikes in cortisol/corticosterone while preserving serotonin and dopamine turnover in stress-processing brain regions.

🚚 📦 Availability 

At CNL, we believe quality is worth the wait. Instead of stocking products and have them sit for months, most orders are produced in small batches to maintain the quality and consistency our customers expect.

Production typically takes approximately two weeks. While this isn't the norm in today's world of overnight delivery, it's how we deliver the premium quality we're known for.

Limited inventory may be available for immediate shipment after large production runs or special promotions.

As a thank you for your patience, we offer bundle discounts of up to 50% OFF.
