SEMAX 10 MG
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of the adrenocorticotropic hormone fragment ACTH(4-10), extended with a Pro-Gly-Pro sequence that confers resistance to enzymatic breakdown. As a member of the melanocortin-derived regulatory-peptide research class, it lacks the hormonal corticotropic activity of the parent fragment and is studied as a reference compound for neuroactive peptide signaling. Its modified structure makes it a stable tool for in-vitro and preclinical investigation. In the laboratory, researchers study Semax in neuronal cultures and preclinical models to examine processes associated with neuroprotection, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and nerve growth factor (NGF) expression, and nootropic-related signaling. In-vitro work also explores its effects on neurotrophin-receptor pathways, oxidative-stress responses, and the modulation of monoaminergic and enkephalin systems. These studies are mechanistic and exploratory, aimed at understanding neuropeptide biology rather than any human or veterinary use. Peptiva Research Labs supplies it as a research-grade reference compound, HPLC-verified with a COA available. For Research Use Only, not for human or veterinary use.
