📖 Description

IGF-1 LR3 is a modified analogue of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) designed to have a longer biological activity than native IGF-1.

IGF-1 is an important mediator of growth hormone signaling and participates in cellular growth, differentiation, protein synthesis, and metabolic regulation. The LR3 modification alters its interaction with IGF-binding proteins, resulting in extended biological activity in experimental models.

⚙️ Mechanism of Action

IGF-1 LR3 interacts primarily with the IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R), a receptor tyrosine kinase found on numerous cell types.

Receptor activation initiates intracellular signaling pathways including:

• 🧬 PI3K/Akt pathway — associated with cell survival and protein synthesis

• 🔬 MAPK pathway — involved in cellular growth and proliferation

• 💪 Skeletal-muscle protein metabolism

• 🧫 Cellular growth and differentiation

• 🔄 Metabolic signaling and nutrient utilization

⭐ Key Characteristics & Research Areas

• 🧬 Modified analogue of human IGF-1

• ⏳ Extended biological activity compared with native IGF-1

• 💪 Studied in skeletal-muscle and tissue-growth research

• 🔬 Investigated for cellular proliferation and differentiation

• ⚙️ Activates IGF-1 receptor signaling

• 🧪 Supplied as refrigerated vials

• ❄️ Storage requirement: 2–8°C

• 🏭 Manufactured by ZPHC PHARMA

⚠️ Possible Side Effects

Potential effects associated with IGF-1 activity may include:

• Hypoglycemia or reduced blood glucose

• Headache

• Dizziness

• Fatigue

• Fluid retention

• Joint or muscle discomfort

• Changes in blood glucose regulation

• Injection-site reactions

Excessive IGF-1 receptor stimulation may also have broader metabolic and tissue-growth effects.

🧊 Storage

Store at 2–8°C according to the manufacturer's storage requirements. Protect from excessive heat and avoid freezing.
