Research Information
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the N-terminal fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH 4-10), modified with a Pro-Gly-Pro extension for stability. It's studied for its role in neuropeptide research. Researchers are interested in how it interacts with BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) signalling and dopaminergic pathways in cell-culture models. The compound has a long history in Russian neuropharmacology research and is used to study melanocortin-independent ACTH fragment activity.
Research areas
- BDNF signalling pathway studies
- Dopaminergic neuron cell-line research
- Melanocortin-independent ACTH fragment studies
- Neuroprotection cell-model research
Analytical methods
Identity and purity are typically confirmed at source by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry. All products are third-party tested for identity and purity.
Storage and handling
Store lyophilised at -20°C, away from moisture and direct light. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within the timeframe specified on the source datasheet.
