Semax — 10 mg

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide (Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) derived from adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH 4–10). It is studied for its effects on attention, memory, stress resilience, and post-stroke recovery, with research interest in neurotrophin pathways.

Benefits

• Attention and focus — studied for enhancing task performance and cognitive clarity.
• Memory support — linked to improved recall and learning efficiency in research models.
• Stress resilience — explored for modulating responses to acute and chronic stress.
• Stroke recovery — clinical programs report increased BDNF and motor recovery benefits.
• Neuroplasticity — associated with BDNF/TrkB and NGF signaling pathways.

What researchers look at

• Mechanistic link to neurotrophins (BDNF/NGF) and plasticity pathways.
• Transcriptomic responses in ischemic cortex models.
• Clinical trials in Russia exploring cognition, attention, and stroke recovery.
• Anti-aggregation properties studied in Aβ–metal interaction models.
