semax

Semax is a synthetic peptide analog of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) that has neuroprotective, analgesic, and anxiolytic properties.

Semax acetate is a synthetic peptide analog of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) that has neuroprotective, analgesic, and anxiolytic properties.

Semaxinib (SU5416) is a potent and selective VEGFR2 inhibitor (IC50: 1.23 μM), exhibiting a 20-fold greater selectivity for VEGFR2 over PDGFRβ, with no activity against InsR, EGFR, and FGFR. Semaxinib reversibly inhibits ATP binding to the tyrosine kinase domain of VEGFR2, potentially inhibiting VEGF-stimulated endothelial cell migration and proliferation, thereby reducing tumor microvasculature.

(Z)-Semaxinib (SU5416) is a potent and selective VEGFR(Flk-1/KDR) inhibitor (IC50: 1.23 μM), 20-fold more selective for VEGFR over PDGFRβ, no inhibition for FGFR, InsR, and EGFR. (Z)-Semaxinib is a quinolone derivative with potential antineoplastic activity.
