Semax 5MG
$30.00
How It Works
Neuropeptide derived from ACTH with cognitive-enhancing and neuroprotective properties
BDNF Modulation
Semax increases brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels by up to 1.4-fold in specific brain regions, supporting neuronal survival, growth, and synaptic plasticity.
- Increases BDNF expression up to 1.4×
- Supports neuronal survival and growth
- Enhances synaptic plasticity
Serotonin & Dopamine Modulation
Research demonstrates Semax modulates serotonergic and dopaminergic systems, influencing mood regulation, attention, and cognitive processing in preclinical models.
- Modulates serotonin metabolism
- Influences dopaminergic signaling
- Affects noradrenergic pathways
Ischemic Protection
In ischemic stroke models, Semax demonstrates neuroprotective effects by reducing infarct volume, modulating inflammatory gene expression, and promoting neuronal survival under oxygen deprivation.
- Reduces infarct volume in stroke models
- Anti-inflammatory gene modulation
- Protects neurons from oxidative stress
