Meccanismo d'azione

Enfuvirtid

Enfuvirtide binds the first heptad-repeat region (HR1) of the gp41 subunit of the HIV envelope protein. This prevents the conformational change required for fusion of the viral and cell membranes — the virus cannot enter the cell.

Selank

Selank is a glyproline-tuftsin analog. Proposed mechanisms include modulation of the GABAergic system, effects on serotonin bioavailability, and influence on enkephalinases. Animal studies show anxiolytic and neuroprotective markers; a clear receptor target is not established.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Enfuvirtid and Selank?: Enfuvirtid is classified as "Ricerca (altro)", while Selank is classified as "Ricerca (altro)". Enfuvirtid: Enfuvirtide is a synthetic 36-amino-acid peptide and the first HIV-1 fusion inhibitor. It binds the HR1 region of the viral envelope protein gp41, blocking viral entry into the cell. Approved for treatment-experienced HIV patients. Selank: Synthetic heptapeptide derived from natural tuftsin. Approved as an anxiolytic (Selank) in Russia and some CIS states. Western phase-3 trials are absent; efficacy assessment relies on Russian research literature. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
Which peptide is better supported by science, Enfuvirtid or Selank?: The highest available evidence level is "RCT sull'uomo" for Enfuvirtid and "Studio sull'uomo" for Selank. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
What is the legal status of Enfuvirtid and Selank in Germany and the United States?: Germania: Enfuvirtid — Su prescrizione, Selank — Non approvato. Stati Uniti: Enfuvirtid — Su prescrizione, Selank — Non approvato. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
