NA Selank

NA Selank is an acetylated version of Selank, a short synthetic peptide chain of seven amino acids derived from a small piece of the natural protein tuftsin. It is best known in cognitive and behavioral research, and what makes it different is the acetyl cap added to its end, which is meant to make the molecule more stable.

It builds on a solid research base, with the original Selank explored for how it interacts with brain signaling and stability in lab settings (Volkova et al., 2016, Frontiers in Pharmacology). That history is why it often turns up as a reference peptide in this kind of work.
