Selank (also known by its developmental code TP-7 or by its synonym Selanc) is a synthetic, heptapeptide neurocognitive agent that functions as a potent anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) and nootropic (cognitive-enhancing) agent. It is often described as a derivative of the naturally occurring human peptide tuftsin, designed to improve metabolic stability and prolong therapeutic effects.
Selank acts through complex mechanisms affecting the CNS and metabolic processes:
GABAergic Modulation: It acts as a positive allosteric modulator of receptors, meaning it enhances the effect of GABA (the brain's primary inhibitory neurotransmitter) without binding to the benzodiazepine site, allowing for reduced anxiety without sedation or motor dysfunction.
- Neurotransmitter Regulation: It modulates the levels of serotonin and dopamine, influencing mood, motivation, and cognitive function.
- BDNF Expression: It rapidly elevates the expression of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus, aiding in neural plasticity, learning, and memory.
- Enkephalin Protection: Selank inhibits the degradation enzymes of enkephalins, which are natural peptides that help manage stress and pain.
- Immunomodulation: As an analogue of tuftsin, it can modulate the immune system, particularly by influencing interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, reducing neuroinflammation.
