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.

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of the endogenous immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg), developed in Russia at the Institute of Molecular Genetics. With the sequence Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro, Selank was designed to combine tuftsin-like biological activity with enhanced metabolic stability, as the Pro-Gly-Pro C-terminal extension confers resistance to proteolytic degradation.

In laboratory and preclinical research, Selank has been investigated for its effects on anxiolytic-like behavior in animal models, as well as for its interactions with the GABAergic system, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression, and enkephalin metabolism. Research has also examined its putative immunomodulatory properties in the context of its tuftsin-derived sequence.

Methodology

How Semax/Selank 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 2Neurobiological studies examine Selank's effects on gene and protein expression in brain tissue, quantifying BDNF, GABA receptor subunit levels, and…+

    Neurobiological studies examine Selank's effects on gene and protein expression in brain tissue, quantifying BDNF, GABA receptor subunit levels, and enkephalin-degrading enzyme activity via RT-PCR, Western blot, and fluorometric enzyme assays. These studies map the molecular correlates of observed behavioral effects.

FAQ

Semax/Selank Nasal Spray FAQ

What format is Semax/Selank Nasal Spray?
Semax/Selank 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/Selank 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/Selank 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.
What is the structural relationship between Selank and tuftsin?
Selank (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro) is a synthetic analog of tuftsin (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg), an endogenous immunomodulatory tetrapeptide. The C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro extension was added to increase metabolic stability by conferring resistance to proteolytic degradation compared to the parent sequence.
What animal models are used in Selank research?
Preclinical research commonly uses rat and mouse models with standardized behavioral paradigms including the elevated plus maze, open field test, and conflict-based anxiety tests. These provide quantitative behavioral endpoints for assessing anxiolytic-like activity under controlled laboratory conditions.
