Semax

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of ACTH(4-10), developed by the Russian Academy of Sciences. It is a nootropic and neuroprotective peptide that upregulates BDNF and NGF in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, enhancing synaptic plasticity, memory, cognitive function, and neuroprotection, with well-documented use in stroke recovery and cognitive impairment research.
Semax research peptide vial
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide (sequence: Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) analog of the cognitively active ACTH(4-10) fragment, extended with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro motif for enhanced metabolic stability. Developed and clinically used in Russia for over 30 years, it is a gold-standard research tool for cognitive neuroscience and neuroprotection studies:

Core Mechanism & Defining Properties

  • Upregulates brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and nerve growth factor (NGF) expression by 2-5 fold in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, driving synaptic plasticity, dendritic spine formation, and neuronal survival
  • Modulates dopaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmission to improve focus, mood stability, and executive function
  • Exerts potent neuroprotective effects: reduces oxidative stress, inhibits excitotoxicity, and supports neuronal recovery after ischemic or traumatic injury
  • Clinically approved in Russia for stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury, optic nerve disease, and cognitive impairment

Primary Research Applications

  • Cognitive neuroscience: learning, memory, and synaptic plasticity research
  • Neuroprotection: stroke, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative disease models
  • Neurotrophic factor signaling and BDNF pathway regulation studies
  • Mood regulation and cognitive enhancement preclinical research
Manufactured to ≥99% purity, sterile-filtered, and lyophilized for long-term storage stability.
