Mechanism of Action
Selank is a synthetic peptide derived from the naturally occurring peptide tuftsin and functions through a complex mechanism that modulates key neurotransmitter systems in the brain:
- GABAergic System:Selank enhances the activity of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. This interaction is central to its anxiolytic (anxiety-reducing) effects, without causing significant sedation or dependency.
- Serotonergic Activity:Selank modulates serotonin levels, a neurotransmitter associated with mood regulation. This helps in alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety.
- Dopaminergic Influence:Selank also affects dopamine levels, contributing to its cognitive-enhancing effects by improving motivation and focus.
- BDNF Regulation:Selank increases the expression of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), a protein essential for neuron growth, learning, and memory. Higher BDNF levels are linked to improved cognitive performance.
- Enkephalin Stabilization:Selank stabilizes enkephalins, naturally occurring peptides that regulate stress and pain responses, potentially reducing feelings of anxiety.
ApplicationsSelank is widely used for its anxiolytic, cognitive-enhancing, and immune-modulating properties:
- Anxiety and Stress Management:Selank effectively reduces anxiety and stress levels without sedation or dependency, making it a suitable alternative to traditional anxiolytics.
- Cognitive Enhancement:It improves memory, focus, and mental clarity, making it popular among students and professionals seeking to enhance cognitive performance.
- Mood Stabilization:By regulating serotonin and dopamine, Selank helps stabilize mood and reduce depressive symptoms.
- Immune Support:Selank has immunomodulatory effects, reducing inflammation and supporting overall immune health.
Dosage and AdministrationSelank is typically administered via nasal spray for rapid absorption and bioavailability:
- Standard Dosage:The common dosage range is 300-500 mcg daily.
- Beginner Dosage (Weeks 1-4):
- Morning Dose: 125 mcg
- Evening Dose: 125 mcg
- Weekly Total: 1,750 mcg.
- Advanced Dosage (Weeks 5-8):
- Morning Dose: 250 mcg
- Evening Dose: 250 mcg
- Weekly Total: 3,500 mcg.
- Onset and Duration:Effects are felt within 15-30 minutes, with peak effects occurring in 1-2 hours. The therapeutic effects last for 4-6 hours.
Storage
- Storage Conditions:Selank should be stored in a cool, dry place, preferably refrigerated to maintain stability and potency.
- Stability:When stored properly, Selank remains stable for extended periods. However, it is important to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
