Overview

About Semax Nasal Spray

Semax is supplied in solution in a metered spray bottle. The solution is ready to use, so there is nothing to reconstitute.

Read more

Semax is a heptapeptide analog of the ACTH(4-7) fragment with the sequence Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro. Developed in Russia at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Semax was designed to retain the cognitive and neuroprotective properties associated with ACTH-derived peptides while eliminating their steroidogenic activity. It has been studied extensively in neuroscience research contexts.

Laboratory investigations have characterized Semax's interactions with the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) signaling pathway. In rodent model studies, Semax exposure has been associated with increased BDNF and TrkB mRNA expression in hippocampal and cortical tissue, placing it within the growing field of neurotrophic factor research. Researchers have also examined its reported modulation of dopaminergic and serotonergic markers in preclinical neural models.

Research context

What Semax Nasal Spray is researched for

The areas where this compound appears in the published research literature.

0103 areas

Neurotrophic factor pathway research

Semax has been studied for its reported capacity to upregulate BDNF and NGF mRNA expression in rodent brain regions including hippocampus and cortex, making it a tool compound for researchers investigating neurotrophin signaling.

0203 areas

Ischemic brain model studies

Preclinical research has examined Semax in rodent stroke and ischemia-reperfusion models, characterizing infarct volume, neurological deficit scoring, and inflammatory marker profiles in treated versus control cohorts.

0303 areas

Cognitive function endpoint research in animal models

Rodent behavioral research using Morris water maze, radial arm maze, and passive avoidance paradigms has been employed to study spatial learning and memory endpoints in Semax-treated cohorts.

Methodology

How Semax Nasal Spray is studied

  1. 01Method 1In vitro, Semax is applied to primary cortical neuron cultures and neural stem cell preparations.+

    In vitro, Semax is applied to primary cortical neuron cultures and neural stem cell preparations. Researchers measure neuronal survival following oxidative stress or excitotoxic challenge using MTT/resazurin viability assays, caspase activation profiling, and mitochondrial membrane potential indicators. TrkB pathway phosphorylation status is assessed by Western blot.

  2. 02Method 2Rodent behavioral studies complement biochemical endpoints.+

    Rodent behavioral studies complement biochemical endpoints. Researchers use standardized paradigms to quantify performance across treatment groups, and statistical analysis includes ANOVA with post-hoc correction. Semax's effect duration in behavioral models is a specific focus of pharmacodynamic research investigating the relationship between peripheral administration timing and CNS endpoint windows.

FAQ

Semax Nasal Spray FAQ

What format is Semax Nasal Spray?
Semax is supplied in solution in a metered spray bottle. The solution is ready to use, so there is nothing to reconstitute. It is sold for laboratory research.
Is Semax Nasal Spray for human use?
No. Supplied for laboratory research use only. Not for human or animal use, and not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Is a batch report available for Semax Nasal Spray?
A batch report is not yet published for this format. Contact ORP before ordering if you need one.
What is the structural basis of Semax as an ACTH analog?
Semax is derived from the ACTH(4-7) core fragment (Met-Glu-His-Phe) with Pro-Gly-Pro added to the C-terminus to improve metabolic stability and extend the duration of CNS-relevant effects in preclinical model systems.
How does Semax relate to BDNF research?
Preclinical studies have reported that Semax administration is associated with increased BDNF mRNA expression in hippocampal and cortical regions of rodent brain. This has made it a subject of interest for researchers studying neurotrophin upregulation mechanisms.
