Semax is a high-purity synthetic analog of the ACTH (4-10) fragment, originally identified for its profound regulatory effects on the central nervous system. In a research context, it is studied for its unique ability to act as a stable signaling peptide that crosses the blood-brain barrier (in specific models) to influence neurotrophic factor expression and cellular survival pathways.
BDNF & NT-3 Expression: Investigating the peptide’s role in upregulating Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) in neuronal cell cultures.
Synaptic Plasticity & Memory: Studying the “nootropic” effect where Semax appears to modulate glutamate receptors and support the formation of new synaptic connections.
Neuroprotection & Ischemic Response: Evaluation of its ability to mitigate oxidative stress and protect neuronal integrity during experimental models of oxygen deprivation or cellular trauma.
Neurotransmitter Modulation: Researching the peptide’s impact on the serotonergic and dopaminergic systems, specifically its role in maintaining neurochemical balance under stress.

Semax is a high-purity synthetic heptapeptide with the sequence $Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro$. Originally derived from a fragment of the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH 4-10), Semax is a primary subject in neuro-analytical research.
In in vitro models, Semax is utilized to investigate the modulation of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and its subsequent impact on synaptic plasticity. Midwest Peptide provides this compound in a 10mg lyophilized format, ensuring maximum stability for researchers exploring the central nervous system’s adaptive responses to metabolic and oxidative stress.
Unit Size: 10mg
Form: Lyophilized white powder
Purity: >98% (HPLC)
Solubility: Highly soluble in sterile water or bacteriostatic water
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark environment. Post-reconstitution, maintain at 2°C–8°C for optimal peptide integrity.
Semax is a focal point for studies involving:
Upregulation of neurotrophins and neurogenesis.
Mechanisms of cognitive enhancement and memory pathway signaling.
Neuroprotective responses within the CNS.
Modulation of neurotransmitter systems and mRNA expression.
