Semax is a reference synthetic heptapeptide derived from the N-terminal fragment of ACTH(4-7) with an added stabilizing Pro-Gly-Pro sequence. In academic literature, it is often cited in Russian peptide studies in the field of neurochemistry.
Investigated biochemical pathways (academic context)
-
Neurotrophin expression: in-vitro and animal models tracking BDNF and NGF expression in isolated hippocampal and cortical cultures.
-
Ischemic-reperfusion in-vitro models: interaction with mitochondrial membranes in experimental models of ischemic-reperfusion stress at the cellular level.
-
