Description
Research use only
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of adrenocorticotropic hormone fragment 4-10, composed of the amino acid sequence Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro. It exhibits neuroprotective, nootropic, and anxiolytic-like effects in preclinical models through mechanisms such as modulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), enhancement of serotonergic and dopaminergic signaling, and inhibition of neuropeptide-degrading enzymes.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder in vials (5 mg). Store at –20 °C for long-term preservation. Short-term storage at room temperature is acceptable, provided it is protected from light. Upon reconstitution (with sterile water or buffer), aliquot and store at 2–8 °C for brief use or –20 °C for long-term storage. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
