Semax 是人工设计的七肽,序列为 Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro,骨架取自促肾上腺皮质激素片段 ACTH(4-10)。它于二十世纪八十年代在苏联的分子遗传学研究机构内合成。设计目标是保留该片段与注意力和记忆相关的活性,同时剔除促皮质激素释放等内分泌作用。此后俄罗斯将其登记为药品并进入临床使用。
当时的短肽研究普遍关注能否穿越血脑屏障、在低剂量下产生中枢效应,Semax 属于这一路线。鼻内给药是其主要使用方式,俄语文献报道的适应症涵盖缺血性卒中、短暂性脑缺血发作、认知功能减退以及视神经病变。这些研究大多发表在当地期刊上,样本规模与终点设置同西方试验惯例存在差异,国际同行对其临床证据的强度看法不一。
从分子层面看,Semax 是线性七肽,没有二硫键、糖基或脂链修饰,N 端为游离氨基,C 端为游离羧基。分子含组氨酸与谷氨酸侧链,因此在水和甲醇等极性溶剂中溶解良好,在非极性溶剂中溶解有限。计算分子量约为 814 Da,与其质子化离子的质荷比吻合,可用于质谱确认。
稳定性主要由水解与氧化两条路径支配。肽键在中性或弱酸性条件下相对稳定,遇到强碱或长时间高温则明显断裂;甲硫氨酸侧链容易被氧化成亚砜,使主峰前移并拉低实际含量。金属离子、光照和反复冻融会进一步促进降解或聚集。冻干粉在低温避光条件下可存放较长时间,配制后的水溶液通常需要冷藏并尽快用完。

Semax is a synthetic seven-amino-acid peptide whose sequence extends the ACTH(4-10) fragment with a C-terminal proline-glycine-proline tripeptide. The commonly cited sequence is Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro, giving a molecular formula near C37H51N9O10S and a molecular weight close to 813.9 g/mol. It belongs to the broader class of synthetic ACTH fragments studied for central nervous system effects rather than for adrenal steroid stimulation. In practice the material appears as a lyophilized white powder for laboratory work or as a dilute saline solution in clinical settings.
Development is attributed to researchers at the Institute of Molecular Genetics in Moscow during the early 1980s, building on earlier Soviet work with ACTH fragments. Russian regulatory approval followed for intranasal use, and the compound has remained commercially available there for decades. Most published human data originate from Russian and, later, some Eastern European clinical reports, which are not always accessible in English translation. Outside that region the material is generally handled as a research chemical rather than a licensed medicine.
Identity and purity of Semax are established mainly by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. The chromatographic trace gives a purity estimate as a percentage of total peak area, while electrospray or matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization confirms the molecular mass against the calculated value. Amino acid analysis and sequence-specific fragmentation provide further confirmation when a supplier's chain of custody is unclear. Vendors frequently quote a purity figure without stating the detection wavelength or the integration method, which limits how far one number can be compared with another.
Stability depends heavily on physical state. Lyophilized powder held dry, cold and dark retains its content over long periods, whereas dissolved peptide begins to change within days at room temperature. The most cited degradation route is oxidation of the methionine residue, which converts the peptide to a sulfoxide form that elutes differently on chromatography. Hydrolysis of amide bonds and adsorption onto container walls contribute smaller losses. Buffers that exclude oxygen from the headspace slow the oxidation pathway, but no single condition prevents all change indefinitely.
or the coupling reagent COMU which is readily soluble as a dimethylmorpholine-uronium salt and which, like Oxyma, is superior to the standard additive HOBt for the suppression of racemization and acylation efficiency and is comparable to HOAt without presenting an explosion risk such as the benzotriazoles. With water-soluble derivatives of ethyl cyanohydroxyiminoacetate (glyceroacetonide-oxyma) as additive and DIC as coupling reagent even in weakly basic aqueous solutions the linking of protected amino acids to oligopeptides is possible with a yield of 95% and a diastereomeric excess of> 99% using the model substances Z-L-Phg-OH and L-H-Pro-NH2.
They also found that the growth trajectories of BMRP 2002.4.1 and BMRP 2006.4.4 do not fit with other Tyrannosaurus specimens in their growth curve model. While they acknowledged the possibility of these ontogenetically immature specimens representing Nanotyrannus as suggested by Zanno and Napoli (2025), they noted that the inconsistencies of these specimens observed in the growth curve do not necessarily bear weight on the proposal that Nanotyrannus is a distinct taxon. In July 2026, Longrich and colleagues described a third metatarsal bone of perinate (hatchling) Tyrannosaurus rex and cf. Gorgosaurus libratus, RSKM P2416.82 from the Frenchman Formation and TMP 1981.16.475 from the Dinosaur Park Formation respectively. Histological analyses reveal that lines of arrested growth are absent in both specimens, indicative of hatchling or embryonic stage. Synchrotron scans of each specimen reveal the relatively high density of the outer surface and the pattern changes in cortical (outer layer) bone structure, with a layer similar to the hatchling/neonatal line of modern oviparous (egg-laying) and viviparous (giving live birth) taxa that characterize the transition from embryonic to hatchling stage. The scans also detected evidence of Haversian bone remodeling, the continuous process of bone tissue breaking down and rebuilding to form secondary canals (tubular channels connecting bones), which are indicative of hatchling stage and precociality, relative maturity and mobility at birth.
=== Acute bone fracture care === Bone fractures are treated in individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta in much the same way as they are treated in the general population; OI bone heals at the same rate as non-OI bone. A greater emphasis is placed on using lightweight materials to immobilize the fracture, as in moderate or severe types of OI, using heavy casts, such as hip spica casts, can cause fractures at the bones at the boundaries of the cast, as well as generalized osteopenia. The lightweight cast or splint is then replaced with a removable orthosis after a few weeks and once evidence of union is seen on X-ray. To prevent a nonunion or malunion, all fractures should be immobilized, even if the fracture seems trivial (microfracture), as people with OI are at greater risk of nonunion. Bone infections secondary to fractures are treated as and when they occur with the appropriate antibiotics and antiseptics, as in the general population.

==== Joining the Colorado Party ==== Peña joined the conservative Colorado Party on 29 October 2016, having previously been a member of the Authentic Radical Liberal Party (PLRA) for 20 years since joining at the age of 17. Peña's membership in the Colorado Party caused controversy, with reports that he only joined the party after Horacio Cartes announced his intention to dismiss members of his cabinet who were not party members. Peña released a statement stating he had joined the party due to its focus on developing Paraguay, and claimed to be the descendent of one of the party's founders, Jaime Peña. Following this, an electoral court annulled Peña's membership to the PLRA.
== Botany == In botany, the term is most common in its adjectival forms, where it is used in binomial names to refer to species that are distinguished by hollow or tubular structures. Monarda fistulosa, for example, has tubular flowers; Eutrochium fistulosum has a tubular stem; Allium fistulosum has hollow or tubular leaves, and Acacia seyal subsp. fistula is the subspecies with hollow spines.
=== Order === The largest increases in strength happen for the exercises in the beginning of a session. Supersets are defined as a pair of different exercise sets performed without rest, followed by a normal rest period. Common superset configurations are two exercises for the same muscle group, agonist-antagonist muscles, or alternating upper and lower body muscle groups. Exercises for the same muscle group (flat bench press followed by the incline bench press) result in a significantly lower training volume than a traditional exercise format with rests. However, agonist–antagonist supersets result in a significantly higher training volume when compared to a traditional exercise format. Similarly, holding training volume constant but performing upper–lower body supersets and tri-sets reduce elapsed time but increased perceived exertion rate. These results suggest that specific exercise orders may allow more intense, more time-efficient workouts with results similar to longer workouts.

The Celtic Boii settled there and the region was first mentioned on the map of Ptolemaios in the 2nd century AD. The Germanic tribe of the Marcomanni dominated the entire core of the region in later centuries. Those tribes already built cities like Brno, but moved west during the Migration Period. In the 7th century AD Slavic people moved in and were united under Samo's realm. Later in the High Middle Ages Germans settled into the less populated border region.
=== Inclusion of people of all genders in defining public health policies === Sociologist Monique Membrado observed in 2006 that women have been underrepresented in the formulation of major public health issues—including HIV, addiction, cardiovascular disease, and cancer—and particularly absent in occupational health discussions.
