PEPTIDE
Semax
Semax Heptapeptide
$59Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the N-terminal fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH 4-10) with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro stabilizing sequence. Developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences alongside Selank, it has been studied for neurotrophic and neuroprotective properties in preclinical models.
ACTH Fragment Analog
Derived from ACTH(4-10) with modifications eliminating corticotropic activity while retaining neurotrophic signaling properties.
Neurotrophic Factor Expression
Investigated for effects on BDNF, NGF, and GDNF expression in neuronal cell culture and animal model research.
Melanocortin System Research
Interacts with MC3 and MC4 melanocortin receptors, enabling study of melanocortin signaling in neuroscience research.
Semax (MEHFPGP) modulates neurotrophic factor expression in rat hippocampus
Study demonstrating Semax's upregulation of BDNF and trkB receptor expression in hippocampal tissue models.
