Batch Details: IGF1-A2

IGF-1 LR3 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 – Long Arg3) is a synthetic, extended half-life analog of human IGF-1. This peptide has been modified with an arginine substitution at position 3 and an extended N-terminal sequence, significantly enhancing its biological activity and duration compared to native IGF-1.

Research Significance
IGF-1 is a naturally occurring peptide hormone involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, and tissue growth. By modifying its structure, IGF-1 LR3 demonstrates:
Increased stability in biological systems
Prolonged half-life (20–30 hours vs. native IGF-1’s ~20 minutes)
Reduced binding to IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs), enhancing receptor activation

Potential Research Applications
Studies on muscle growth, repair, and regeneration
Investigations into cellular signaling pathways (via IGF-1 receptor activation)
Models of glucose metabolism and nutrient uptake
Exploration of performance recovery mechanisms in preclinical settings
