Semax (ACTH 4-10 Analog) >99% Purity – Lyophilized Peptide

$35.00

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the N-terminal fragment of Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH 4-10). Unlike natural ACTH, Semax is modified to be completely devoid of hormonal activity while retaining potent neurotropic effects. Research indicates it significantly upregulates Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and modulates dopaminergic and serotonergic systems. Our lyophilized Semax is HPLC-verified for >99% purity. Strictly for in-vitro laboratory research and development use only; not for human consumption.

Description

Semax (Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) was developed to explore the non-hormonal cognitive effects of the stress response system. By stabilizing the ACTH fragment, researchers created a compound that can rapidly cross the blood-brain barrier in animal models.

Mechanism of Action

  • BDNF Expression: Studies show a rapid increase in BDNF levels in the hippocampus and forebrain, which is critical for neuronal survival and synaptic plasticity.

  • Neuroprotection: Extensive research has been conducted on its ability to protect neurons during hypoxia (low oxygen) and oxidative stress.

  • Neurotransmitter Modulation: It is observed to modulate the metabolism of dopamine and serotonin, potentially enhancing focus and attention without the “crash” associated with traditional stimulants.

Quality Assurance

  • Sequence: ACTH(4-10) Analog (7 Amino Acids)

  • Purity: >99% Verified by HPLC

  • Form: Sterile White Lyophilized Powder
