About Semax
A synthetic heptapeptide derived from the ACTH(4-10) fragment — Russia's most studied nootropic research peptide.
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide with the sequence Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro, developed in Russia in the 1980s at the Institute of Molecular Genetics. Structurally, it is a modified fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH 4-10), but engineered to lose hormonal activity while retaining neurological effects.
Semax is included in the Russian Federation's official List of Vital and Essential Drugs and has been used in Russian neurology research for over three decades. In the West, it has gained increasing visibility as a research-grade nootropic peptide studied for cognition, neuroplasticity, and stress-response pathways.
Research mechanism
Published Semax research has documented activity on:
- BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) — increased expression in cortical and hippocampal tissue
- NGF (Nerve Growth Factor) — supporting neuronal survival and outgrowth
- Melanocortin system — though Semax lacks hormonal ACTH activity
- Selank/anxiolytic pathways — modulating GABA-related stress response
- Dopamine and serotonin — modulation of monoamine neurotransmission in animal models
Research applications
- Cognitive function and memory research
- Neuroprotection studies (stroke models, hypoxia)
- BDNF/NGF expression research
- Attention and focus research models
- Stress and anxiety neurobiology studies
- ADHD-related preclinical research

Frequently asked questions
How is Semax supplied?
Each REVIVE vial contains 10 mg of lyophilized Semax at ≥ 98.5% HPLC purity with a lot-level Certificate of Analysis. Stable at −20°C, desiccated.
How do I reconstitute Semax?
Add 2–3 mL of sterile or bacteriostatic water along the vial wall. Swirl gently. Refrigerate at 2–8°C after reconstitution.
Is Semax related to Selank?
Both are Russian-developed research peptides studied for neurological pathways — but they have different structures and mechanisms. Semax is studied primarily for cognitive enhancement and BDNF; Selank for anxiolytic and immunomodulatory pathways.
