N-Acetyl Selank Amidate
Scientific Profile
N-Acetyl Selank Amid is an acetylated and amidated analog of the endogenous peptide tuftsin. In animal models, this peptide demonstrates anxiolytic effects through modulation of GABAergic and serotonergic systems. Research indicates it may influence neurotransmitter metabolism, particularly serotonin and dopamine levels.
The N-terminal acetylation and C-terminal amidation enhance its stability and blood-brain barrier penetration. Studies suggest immunomodulatory properties through regulation of cytokine production.
