THE ANXIETY REDUCER
Selank
Calms anxiety while improving focus and cognitive function for balanced mood.
Also known as: TP-7; N-acetyl Selank Amidate
Overview
Selank is a synthetic peptide developed in Russia that provides anti-anxiety (anxiolytic) and cognitive-enhancing effects without sedation or addiction potential. It modulates GABA, serotonin, and dopamine systems while also boosting BDNF for neuroplasticity. Uniquely, it also has immune-modulating and antiviral properties, making it a versatile nootropic.
Key Benefits & Mechanisms
GABA Enhancement
Increases GABA-A receptor affinity for calming
BDNF Boost
Activates ERK/PI3K/Akt for neurogenesis
Enkephalin Preservation
Inhibits enkephalinase to maintain endogenous opioids
Immune Modulation
Shifts cytokines toward anti-inflammatory IL-10
