Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide with the sequence Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro. It is described in the literature as an analogue of the ACTH(4–10) fragment, a short N-terminal portion of adrenocorticotropic hormone that retains some neurotropic activity without the full hormonal effects of the parent peptide. The molecule carries a methionine residue at the N-terminus and two proline residues near the C-terminus, features that shape both its interactions with receptor systems and its chemical stability. The free peptide corresponds to the formula C37H51N9O10S and a molecular mass near 813.9 Da.
The compound was developed in the 1980s at the Institute of Molecular Genetics in Moscow, where it emerged from research on short ACTH fragments and their effects on the central nervous system. Russian pharmaceutical listings describe it as a nootropic and neuroprotective agent, most often formulated as nasal drops. It is not a marketed medicine in the United States or the European Union, and no pharmacopoeial monograph covers it. Consequently, most published clinical experience with the substance originates from a small number of research centres, mainly in Russia and neighbouring countries.
Pharmacological accounts link semax to melanocortin signalling and to modulation of neurotrophic factor expression, particularly brain-derived neurotrophic factor and nerve growth factor. Much of this evidence comes from rodent studies using intranasal delivery, a route chosen because it allows peptides to reach the central nervous system with limited systemic exposure. Whether the same mechanisms operate in humans at comparable magnitude remains an open question. The precise receptor or receptors responsible for the reported behavioural and neuroprotective effects have not been conclusively identified.
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。
各国监管态度分化明显。俄罗斯按处方药管理，部分东欧国家留有使用记录；欧盟与美国未批准其作为药物上市，市面流通品通常标注为研究用化学品。身份差异意味着标示含量、纯度与无菌性缺少统一核查。体育领域还牵涉反兴奋剂名录，跨境携带则受目的地药品法规约束。

== Interactions == Collagen, type VII, alpha 1 forms a complex network with several other proteins in the basement membrane. It has been shown to interact with laminin 5 and fibronectin, as well as collagen IV, by binding these proteins in the NC-1 domain. The stability of the basement membrane and dermal-epidermal junction is thought to be due to these interactions.
Ram Krishna Nagar State assembly constituency is one of the 126 state legislative assembly constituencies in Assam, India. It is one of the six assembly segments that constitute the Karimganj Lok Sabha constituency. Since 2019, it has been represented by Bijoy Malakar of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Originally established as Ratabari in 1962, the constituency was redrawn during the 2023 delimitation exercise and was renamed to Ram Krishna Nagar. The reconstituted constituency now includes Ramkrishna Nagar town, and many other rural areas of the Sribhumi district.
The grouping consistent with transfer of nitrogenous groups is EC 2.6. This includes enzymes like transaminase (also known as "aminotransferase"), and a very small number of oximinotransferases and other nitrogen group transferring enzymes. EC 2.6 previously included amidinotransferase but it has since been reclassified as a subcategory of EC 2.1 (single-carbon transferring enzymes). In the case of aspartate transaminase, which can act on tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan, it reversibly transfers an amino group from one molecule to the other. The reaction, for example, follows the following order: L-aspartate +2-oxoglutarate

== Early life == She was born in London to Georgian mother Nino Kvinitadze, daughter of General Giorgi Kvinitadze, and Anglo-Dutch father Peter Claude Holland d'Abo, of a landed gentry family of West Wratting, Cambridgeshire. Maryam d'Abo was raised in Paris and Geneva. D’Abo was drawing from the age of eight, but by 13 she wanted to become an actress; she joined an amateur theatre company while at school in Geneva. She decided to do a foundation course at the London College of Printing at 18, but she abandoned those studies in order to go to drama school at Drama Centre London. She left after one term in order to make her film debut.
Solorinic acid is an anthraquinone pigment found in the leafy lichen Solorina crocea. It is responsible for the strong orange colour of the medulla and the underside of the thallus in that species. In its purified crystalline form, it exists as orange-red crystals with a melting point of 201 °C (394 °F). The structure of solorinic acid, 2-n-hexanoyl-1,3,8-trihydroxy-6-methoxy-anthraquinone, was proposed by Koller and Russ in 1937, and verified by chemical synthesis in 1966. Norsolorinic acid, (C20H18O7, 2-hexanoyl-1,3,6,8-tetrahydroxyanthraquinone), is a closely related compound also found in Solorina crocea. Solorinic acid was used as the internal standard in the establishment of a standardized method for the identification of lichen products using high-performance liquid chromatography. This is because it is quite a hydrophobic compound, and consequently will elute more slowly than most lichen products, making possible the identification of lichen extracts containing chlorinated xanthones or long chain depsides. Although usually associated with Solorina crocea, solorinic acid was reported as a lichen product from the crustose, rock-dwelling lichen Placolecis kunmingensis, described as a species new to science in 2019.
There is no adequate level, recommended daily amount or tolerable upper limit for trans fats. This is because any incremental increase in trans fat intake increases the risk of coronary artery disease. Despite this concern, the NAS dietary recommendations have not included eliminating trans fat from the diet. This is because trans fat is naturally present in many animal foods in trace quantities, and thus its removal from ordinary diets might introduce undesirable side effects and nutritional imbalances. The NAS has, thus, "recommended that trans fatty acid consumption be as low as possible while consuming a nutritionally adequate diet". Like the NAS, the WHO has tried to balance public health goals with a practical level of trans fat consumption, recommending in 2003 that trans fats be limited to less than 1% of overall energy intake.

=== Secondhand cannabis smoke === A 2022 study found that smoking cannabis using a bong can greatly increase background levels of fine particulate matter, a carcinogen, in an enclosed space such as a living room. After 15 minutes, mean levels of particulate matter were more than twice the Environmental Protection Agency hazardous air quality threshold, and after 140 minutes, the concentrations were four times greater than those generated by smoking tobacco using a cigarette or hookah. This suggests secondhand cannabis smoke from bongs may present a health risk to non-smokers.
==== Commonly associated with weight gain ==== Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which is characterized by insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism, is a common condition that has been linked to obesity. A combination of genetics, lifestyle, and environment appear to contribute to the hormonal changes responsible for weight gain and obesity seen in individuals with PCOS.There appears to be a bidirectional relationship between obesity and PCOS, whereby PCOS increases the risk of obesity and similarly, obesity has been found to exacerbate PCOS hormonal differences and clinical symptoms. Obesity has been linked with pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. In diabetes, impaired β-islet cells are responsible for the lack of blood glucose control. Individuals with a higher body mass index concerning for obesity may have increased levels of hormones, proinflammatory markers, and glycerol, which can contribute to insulin resistance. The combined effects of impaired pancreatic β-islet cells and insulin resistance increase the likelihood of developing diabetes. In individuals with blood sugar levels in the prediabetic range, weight loss was demonstrated to have many benefits including improved glycemic control and a reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Long before the born secret issues associated with the restricted data provisions of the US Atomic Energy Act of 1946, the US Invention Secrecy Act of 1951, and the US Patent and Trademark Law Amendments Act of 1980 and/or the increasing concerns with respect to the on-going biopiracy of natural products, and in the early 20th-century atmosphere of cultural change — not only in the proliferation of vocational universities, rather than research universities, but also in the gradual move from the disciplinary concentration on "pure science" and, perhaps, aspects of "applied science", to that of fostering "industrial science" in both primary and secondary industries — the ethical question of whether or not those universities devoted to "pure science" (viz., the discovery/creation, distillation, refinement, diffusion, and the free dissemination of knowledge for the benefit of the public) should have any interest in "applied science", and further, whether they should have any commercial interest in the products of their research and, in particular, whether they should seek patents for their discoveries. In his 1926 Presidential address to the Society of American Bacteriologists (HZ.1), Hans Zinsser spoke against "the growing tendency on the part of medical scientific workers, and bacteriologists especially, to patent discoveries of practical therapeutic and public health value" (p.157).

It is described as a synthetic analogue of the ACTH(4–10) fragment, a short segment of adrenocorticotropic hormone. Its sequence differs from that fragment and includes two proline residues, which influence stability and behaviour in solution.
It appears in Russian pharmaceutical listings as a nasal formulation, but it is not an authorised medicine in the United States or the European Union. Outside those markets it is normally encountered as a research chemical rather than a prescription product.
Laboratory and animal work points to melanocortin signalling and changes in neurotrophic factor levels, especially brain-derived neurotrophic factor. The exact receptor targets and the degree to which these findings transfer to humans are still unresolved.
