Research background

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide based on the ACTH(4-10) fragment with the same Pro-Gly-Pro stabilising extension used in Selank. It lacks the corticotropic activity of the parent hormone, which is central to its use as a neuropeptide research tool.

Mechanism of action

Reported to increase BDNF and NGF expression and to modulate dopaminergic and serotonergic turnover in rodent brain tissue, while showing no measurable adrenal stimulation. Its inability to activate melanocortin-2 receptors is a defining feature.

Areas of scientific investigation

  • Neurotrophic factor expression studies
  • Cognitive and behavioural models in rodents
  • ACTH fragment structure-activity mapping
  • Cerebral ischemia research models

Listed fields describe where this sequence appears in published in vitro and preclinical literature. They are not indications, applications, or claims of effect.

Laboratory handling

Reconstitution

Allow the vial to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation on the lyophilized cake. Add sterile or bacteriostatic water slowly down the inner wall of the vial, then let the powder dissolve without agitation; swirl gently if needed. Do not shake or vortex — shear forces denature peptide secondary structure and cause foaming that traps material on the stopper.

Stability

As a sealed lyophilized powder the material is stable for extended periods at -20 °C when kept desiccated and protected from light. Once in solution, stability shortens considerably: aqueous stocks are normally held at 2-8 °C for short term work or aliquoted and frozen for longer storage. Repeated freeze-thaw cycling is the most common cause of measurable potency loss.

Packaging

Single sequence per vial, sealed under inert gas in USP Type I borosilicate glass with a butyl rubber stopper and crimped aluminium overseal. Each vial carries a printed PRIMEGEN LABS label with product name, strength, lot number, manufacture and retest dates, storage temperature and a QR code linking to the lot record. Vials ship in a rigid foam insert inside a protective mailer at ambient temperature.
