IGF-1 LR3 (Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Long R3)
For Laboratory Research Use Only – Not for Human Consumption
Product Overview:
IGF-1 LR3 is a synthetic analog of human Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 with an altered amino acid sequence that extends its half-life in research settings. This modification allows it to remain active longer, providing researchers with a wider study window when examining cellular growth, recovery, and regeneration pathways.
Research Notes (in simple terms):
-
IGF-1 LR3 interacts with IGF-1 receptors and insulin receptors in cell culture models.
-
Often studied for its potential influence on cell proliferation, protein synthesis, and tissue repair in vitro.
-
The “Long R3” modification reduces its binding to certain binding proteins, which can increase the availability of IGF-1 LR3 during experiments.
-
Used in research exploring muscle cell growth, wound healing models, and neurological health.
