Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the ACTH(4–7) sequence and consisting of Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro (MEHFPGP). It has a molecular formula of C₃₇H₅₁N₉O₁₀S, molecular weight of approximately 813.9 g/mol, and CAS number 80714-61-0.
Semax has been extensively investigated in neuroscience research, including studies of neuroprotection, neuronal signaling, cognitive processes, cerebral ischemia, inflammatory responses and neurotrophic pathways. Research suggests that its biological activity may involve modulation of gene expression, neuroprotective signaling, inflammatory pathways and interactions with regulatory peptide systems.
The compound is structurally related to the ACTH(4–7) peptide region and is commonly studied alongside other regulatory neuropeptides such as Selank.
