Semax is a research-grade synthetic heptapeptide derived from the 4-7 fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), modified with a Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide extension to enhance stability and bioactivity. Recognized as one of the most extensively studied nootropic peptides in Russian neuroscience,

Semax is notable for its capability to upregulate brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and modulate central neurotransmitter systems, including dopamine, serotonin, and acetylcholine. This peptide is provided in lyophilised powder form, with a purity of 99% or higher, suitable for scientific research. It is supplied in a 10mg package and must be stored at -20°C, protected from light and moisture to preserve its integrity.

Research applications include:

  • Investigation of BDNF upregulation and neurotrophic pathway modulation
  • Studies on cognitive functions such as memory and learning
  • Analysis of neuroprotective mechanisms against hypoxia and oxidative stress
  • Research on neurotransmitter system modulation, including dopaminergic, serotonergic, and cholinergic pathways
  • Examination of enkephalin degradation inhibition and endogenous opioid pathways
  • Comparison of nootropic peptides, including studies contrasting Semax with other compounds like Selank

Product specifications:

  • Form: Lyophilised powder
  • Purity: ≥99%
  • Storage: -20°C, protected from light and moisture
  • Available strength: 10 mg

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary research applications of Semax peptide?
Semax peptide is widely used in research to study BDNF upregulation, neurotrophic pathways, cognitive functions, neuroprotection against hypoxia and oxidative stress, and modulation of neurotransmitter systems, including dopaminergic, serotonergic, and cholinergic pathways. It also helps investigate endogenous opioid pathways and compare nootropic peptides.
How does Semax peptide influence neurotransmitter systems like dopamine and serotonin?
Semax peptide modulates central neurotransmitter systems by influencing dopamine, serotonin, and acetylcholine levels, which supports cognitive functions and neuroprotective mechanisms. This modulation is key to understanding its potential nootropic benefits in research models.
What are the storage requirements and handling precautions for Semax peptide?
Semax peptide should be stored at −20°C, protected from light and moisture to maintain its stability and purity. Handling must be carried out by qualified professionals within a laboratory environment, as it is for research use only and not intended for human consumption.
