Product Overview

Semax 10mg (Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) is a synthetic heptapeptide analogue derived from an ACTH(4-10) fragment. Specifically stabilized with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide to resist enzymatic degradation, Semax is widely investigated in neurobiology for its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and stimulate the expression of key neurotrophic factors, including Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and Nerve Growth Factor (NGF).

This 10mg format provides research laboratories with a high-purity, stable compound for evaluating synaptic plasticity, cognitive performance, neuroprotective cascades, and cerebral circulation dynamics in central nervous system models.

Key Research Features & Highlights

  • BDNF & NGF Upregulation: Serves as a primary reference tool for analyzing neurotrophin signaling and neurogenesis in hippocampal and cortical cell cultures.

  • Enzymatic Stability (Pro-Gly-Pro sequence): Engineered with a extended peptide tail that prevents rapid peptidase cleavage, extending operational half-life during in vitro assays.

  • Dopaminergic & Cholinergic Modulation: Widely studied for regulating central dopamine and acetylcholine metabolism without activating peripheral adrenocortical axis pathways.

  • Cerebral Protection & Vascular Kinetics: Tailored for evaluating microvascular perfusion, hypoxia tolerance, and cellular survival under ischemic stress.

  • Analytical Grade Purity (≥99%): Independently validated via High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Mass Spectrometry (MS) to guarantee precise experimental repeatability.

Primary Applications in Laboratory Research

  • Neurotrophic Signaling & Synaptic Plasticity: Investigating BDNF and NGF receptor activation (TrkB/TrkA) and long-term potentiation (LTP) in neuronal networks.

  • Ischemic & Hypoxic Stress Models: Analyzing stroke-mimetic cellular damage, apoptosis reduction, and oxidative stress mitigation in brain tissue cultures.

  • Cognitive Function & Nootropic Mechanisms: Studying memory consolidation, learning retention pathways, and attention performance parameters.

  • Neuroinflammatory Modulation: Evaluating glial cell activation, neuroinflammatory cytokine suppression, and microglial homeostasis.
