Neuroprotective Peptides
6 peptides in this category
Semax
Also: ACTH 4-10, Heptapeptide Semax
A synthetic heptapeptide derived from ACTH (4-10) fragment. Developed in Russia for cognitive enhancement and neuroprotection. Known for nootropic effects without hormonal activity.
Epithalon
Also: Epitalon, Epithalone, AGAG
A synthetic tetrapeptide that activates telomerase, the enzyme responsible for maintaining telomere length. Developed in Russia for anti-aging research. Investigated for longevity, neuroprotection, and age-related cognitive decline.
Selank
Also: TP-7, Selanc
A synthetic heptapeptide derived from the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin. Developed in Russia as an anxiolytic and nootropic. Known for cognitive enhancement without sedation or dependence.
Dihexa
Also: N-hexanoic-Tyr-Ile-(6) aminohexanoic amide, PNB-0408
A synthetic hexapeptide derivative that potently modulates the HGF/c-Met system. Shown to be millions of times more potent than BDNF in promoting synaptogenesis. Investigated for cognitive enhancement and neurodegenerative conditions.
NA-Semax
Also: N-Acetyl Semax, Acetylated Semax, NASA
An acetylated derivative of Semax with enhanced potency and bioavailability. The N-acetyl modification increases stability and CNS penetration. Investigated for cognitive enhancement and neuroprotection.
P21
Also: P021, CNTF-derived peptide
A synthetic peptide derived from Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF). Designed to promote neurogenesis and enhance BDNF expression. Investigated for cognitive enhancement and neurodegenerative disease potential.
