N-[(3S)-1-[2-[[(2S)-1-[(2S)-2-[[(2S)-2-amino-4-methylpentanoyl]amino]propanoyl]pyrrolidin-2-yl]formyl]pyrrolidin-1-yl]-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan-2-yl]-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide
Selank is a synthetic anxiolytic peptide that selectively modulates GABA and serotonin neurotransmitter systems while enhancing BDNF expression. It provides anxiolytic effects without sedation, making it ideal for cognitive enhancement and stress management applications.
How Selank Works
From Injection to Results
The Science Behind It
In Plain Terms
Think of Selank as a gentle brain tuner that adjusts your anxiety and focus settings. It enhances your brain's natural calming chemicals (GABA) while boosting learning chemicals (BDNF), like having a skilled technician fine-tune your mental radio to get clearer reception without any static or drowsiness.
Technical Details
Selank selectively enhances GABAergic neurotransmission and modulates serotonin pathways through direct receptor interaction and indirect BDNF upregulation. It influences neurotransmitter synthesis and release while promoting neuroplasticity through brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression, resulting in anxiolytic effects without cognitive impairment or sedation.
