Selank references: every cited study, listed in full

The complete source list behind the claims on this site, with PubMed and DOI links.

About this source list

Every numbered citation used across this site appears below in full, with PubMed IDs and DOIs where available. The list reflects the concentration noted throughout the digest: many entries are from Russian research groups and Russian-language journals with English abstracts, and several lack DOIs because of their publication venue. They are listed exactly as catalogued so a reader can locate each source directly. This is a reading list of the published Selank literature, not an endorsement of any claim within it.
