  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In rats after bilateral carotid occlusion, semax treatment decreased the mRNA level of neurotrophin receptors in the frontal cortex, while PGP increased it.

    In plain wordsIn rats with reduced brain blood flow, semax lowered the mRNA of neurotrophin receptors in the frontal cortex, while PGP raised it.

    Summary · context
    We have analyzed the effect of synthetic peptide semax and its C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide upon mRNAs expression of neurotrophins Ngf, Bdrf, Nt-3 and their receptors TrkA, TrkB, TrkC, p75 in rat frontal lobes, hippocampus and cerebellum after bilateral common carotid artery occlusion.
  2. 02AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In rats after bilateral carotid occlusion, semax overcame the occlusion-induced decrease in gene expression of neurotrophins and their receptors.

    In plain wordsIn rats with reduced brain blood flow, semax reversed the drop in neurotrophin and receptor gene activity that the blockage caused.
