Product Description

Semax is a lab-made peptide derived from a fragment of ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone), a naturally occurring hormone. The fragment used doesn't carry ACTH's hormonal activity — instead it's structured to retain a different part of the parent molecule's signalling profile. Because it's a well-defined, stable peptide, it can be studied consistently across cell-based and animal research models.

In lab studies, Semax appears to interact with pathways involved in neurotrophic factor expression, including BDNF, as well as monoamine signalling systems. Researchers use it as a tool to study how these neurochemical pathways function and interact. As with other research peptides, the specific results depend on the model system, concentration, and experimental conditions used.
