What It Is

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the N-terminal sequence fragment of Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH 4-10), specifically modified with a Proline-Glycine-Proline tripeptide tail at its C-terminus. This structural enhancement stabilizes the molecule against enzymatic degradation, allowing it to cross the blood-brain barrier and function as a potent neuroactive and nootropic peptide.

What It Is Commonly Used For

  • BDNF & TrkB Pathway Upregulation: Studied for its ability to significantly increase levels of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and its receptor TrkB in the hippocampus, supporting neuronal survival, synaptic plasticity, and neurogenesis.

  • Neuroprotection & Ischemic Recovery: Evaluated in neurological injury models for suppressing inflammatory cytokines, reducing oxidative stress, and protecting cerebral neurons against hypoxic or ischemic damage.

  • Cognitive Function & Dopaminergic/Serotonergic Modulation: Researched for its influence on central neurotransmitter systems, enhancing memory retention, focus, executive function, and stress resistance without hormonal side effects.

General Purpose

To provide a synthetic ACTH-derived heptapeptide for investigating BDNF expression, neuroprotective mechanisms, cognitive processing pathways, and neurotransmitter regulation in laboratory research.
