Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the N-terminus of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH 4-10), developed in Russia for research in nootropic, neuroprotective, and antidepressant effects. Acts on BDNF, NGF, and serotonergic/dopaminergic systems. Unlike full ACTH, Semax does not stimulate cortisol release.
