What is Selank?
Selank is a synthetic analog of the immune peptide tuftsin, developed in Russia. Research has explored anti-anxiety (anxiolytic) and nootropic-like effects, potentially via modulation of neurotransmitters and BDNF.
Also known as: TP-7
How Selank is studied
Selank is a synthetic analog of the immune peptide tuftsin, developed in Russia. Research suggests it may modulate neurotransmitters (including GABA and serotonin systems) and BDNF, which is the basis for studies of anti-anxiety and cognition-supporting effects.

Selank — frequently asked questions
Anti-anxiety (anxiolytic) effects, focus, and stress resilience. Much of the research is region-specific and not widely replicated.
No. Selank is not an approved medication in the US or EU; most clinical research comes from Russia.
No. It is a peptide studied for anxiolytic-like effects through different mechanisms, without the dependence profile associated with benzodiazepines.
