Description

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH 4-10) studied for its neuroprotective and cognitive modulation potential.

Semax (MEHFPGP) is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from ACTH that exhibits neuroregulatory properties in research models. It has been explored for its role in modulating brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), synaptic plasticity, and adaptive neurological responses. Studies focus on its influence on learning, focus, and neural resilience under stress conditions.
