ACTH(4-7)PGP · Neuroprotective Heptapeptide
ACTH(4-10) analog. Studied in BDNF expression and neuroprotective models.
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the ACTH(4-10) fragment with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro extension that stabilizes it against enzymatic degradation. Research published by Dolotov et al. (2006) demonstrated significant upregulation of BDNF and NGF expression in rat brain tissue, providing a mechanistic basis for its studied neuroprotective and cognitive enhancement effects.
