| Message: | Selank as an antiviral agent
Selank neuropeptide also expresses immunomodulatory effects. In 2009 a study by F. Ershov et all. has evaluated antiviral properties of Selank both in vitro and in vivo against the influenza virus strain A/Aichi 2/68 (H3N2). The pronounced antiviral effect of Selank was detected in both systems. The highest efficiency - completely supressed viral reproduction was shown when Selank was added to the cell culture 24 hours before inoculation.
