High-Purity Research Peptide for Canadians
Semax (Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) is a synthetic heptapeptide with profound neurobiological activity, making it a cornerstone of research in Canadian neuroscience and pharmacology laboratories. It is an analog of the active fragment ACTH(4-10) of the endogenous Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH), modified for enhanced metabolic stability and a focused effect on the Central Nervous System (CNS) [1, 2].
Semax is highly valued for its nootropic, neuroprotective, and neurogenic properties in research models, primarily through the rapid upregulation of key neurotrophic factors [3].
This guide details Semax’s specific molecular mechanism, its research applications in brain health, and the high purity standards required by Canadian labs.
Semax is primarily studied for its ability to quickly and potently influence factors governing neuronal survival, plasticity, and function.
Semax’s most significant research finding is its rapid and long-lasting effect on Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), a protein essential for neuronal growth, differentiation, and survival [1, 3].
Effect: Semax significantly increases both the concentration of BDNF and the expression of its primary receptor, TrkB (Tropomyosin receptor kinase B), particularly in the hippocampus and cortex [3, 4].
Research Relevance: This mechanism positions Semax as a powerful tool for studying models related to synaptic plasticity, memory consolidation, and neurogenesis [5].
Semax demonstrates rapid activation of key monoaminergic systems, which regulate mood, cognition, and motivation:
Serotonin and Dopamine: Research shows Semax can quickly increase the activity of the serotonergic and dopaminergic systems in the basal forebrain, contributing to its research use in models of cognitive performance and mood stabilization [2, 5].
In controlled models of neuronal stress (hypoxia or ischemia), Semax exhibits neuroprotective effects. This is linked to its ability to modulate key molecular pathways that stabilize the brain’s circulation and metabolism during stress [1, 4].
| Research Category | Primary Focus of Study | Relevance to Canadian Labs |
| Cognitive Enhancement | Memory formation, synaptic plasticity, BDNF signaling | Used to model nootropic mechanisms and potential ADHD pathways. |
| Neuroprotection | Hypoxia, Ischemia, Oxidative Stress Models | Investigating survival pathways following neuronal injury. |
| Neurotransmitter Mapping | Dopaminergic and Serotonergic Activity | Used to isolate and modulate specific monoamine systems. |
Reliable neuroscientific research demands the highest quality materials. Luxara Labs ensures strict adherence to required standards.
Standard: ≥99% Purity (Analytical Grade) verified by HPLC and Mass Spectrometry (MS) is non-negotiable for reproducible data [6].
COA Compliance: Every batch requires a Lot-Specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing a transparent chain of custody and identity confirmation.
Semax is stable in its lyophilized form but benefits significantly from low transit times. Luxara Labs ensures fast domestic Canadian shipping (1–2 business days) and proper packaging to maintain the peptide’s integrity until it reaches the researcher’s controlled environment.
A compliant COA should list:
Generic or non-matching COAs are not acceptable for Canadian research standards.
