Semax — 10mg

What Is Semax?

Semax is a synthetic peptide originally developed as a modified fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Unlike ACTH, however, Semax does not stimulate corticosteroid production and instead has been studied primarily for its effects on neurological signaling pathways.

Researchers investigate Semax for its potential influence on neurotrophic factors, neurotransmitter systems, and neural plasticity mechanisms. Because of these interactions, the peptide has become a subject of interest in neuroscience research examining cognitive function, memory formation, and brain signaling pathways.

Semax is also studied for its potential interaction with molecules involved in neuronal growth and protection.
