In rat basal forebrain plasma membranes and glial and neuronal cell cultures, the main processes in Semax degradation were splitting away of ME and GP, and formation of pentapeptides.
In plain wordsIn lab tests with rat brain cells and membranes, Semax was mainly broken down by loss of ME and GP and formation of pentapeptides.
