Selank 10mg
Cognition
Overview
Selank 10mg is a synthetic peptide analogue supplied as a lyophilised powder for laboratory research use. It is selected within controlled environments for investigation into peptide structure, neuropeptide interaction, and signalling pathways.
Classification: Selank — a synthetic seven amino-acid peptide (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro) derived from the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin, developed at the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences.
Research background
Within laboratory settings, Selank is studied for its interaction with neuroregulatory pathways and peptide signalling systems. Research applications focus on receptor binding activity, peptide stability, and central nervous system pathway modelling under controlled experimental conditions.
This summary describes published preclinical and, where applicable, clinical research. It is not a medical claim and does not describe or endorse any human use of the compound as sold by Peptides UK 4U.
Mechanism of action (under investigation)
Published research investigates Selank in preclinical models of anxiety-like behaviour and stress response, with reported effects on GABAergic signalling, enkephalin metabolism and interleukin expression. Presented here as research background.
Laboratory handling
This product is typically reconstituted using bacteriostatic water or a suitable sterile solvent within a controlled laboratory setting. All handling should be carried out by qualified professionals using appropriate sterile techniques and safety procedures.
Storage & stability
- Store in a cool, dry environment before reconstitution.
- For extended stability, storage at -20°C is recommended.
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles after reconstitution.
For reconstitution volumes and target working concentrations use our peptide calculator. We do not publish dosing protocols for human use.

Frequently asked questions
What is Selank studied for in research?
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analogue of the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin, investigated in vitro for its interaction with neuroregulatory and neuropeptide-signalling pathways.
What purity is your Selank?
Every 10mg vial is tested to ≥98% purity by RP-HPLC. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis is available on request.
How is Selank reconstituted and stored?
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water in a sterile laboratory environment — see our peptide calculator for target concentrations. Store the reconstituted solution refrigerated at 2–8°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
How is Selank different from Semax?
Both are Russian-developed research neuropeptides — Selank is a tuftsin analogue, Semax is an ACTH(4-10) fragment analogue. They are commonly compared side-by-side in cognition/neuroregulation research.
