Product Description
Semax – 5mg

Product Overview

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of the C-terminal fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), specifically ACTH(4–10). Originally developed for its neuroprotective and nootropic properties, Semax functions by modulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels and influencing neurotransmitter systems, including dopamine and serotonin. Its unique structural modifications allow for enhanced stability and biological activity, making it a focal point in research regarding cognitive function, neuroprotection, and the central nervous system's response to ischemic injury.

Key Research Areas

Neuroprotective mechanisms and cerebral ischemia studies

Cognitive enhancement and memory retention models

BDNF regulation and neurotrophic factor investigations

Neurotransmitter modulation in central nervous system research

Handling & Reconstitution

For laboratory use, reconstitute with Bacteriostatic Water (BAC) or sterile saline. After reconstitution, the solution should be stored at 2–8°C (36–46°F) and used within the appropriate experimental window to maintain peptide stability.
