Description

IGF-1 LR3 (Long Arg3 Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1) is a modified analogue of naturally occurring insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). Through the substitution of arginine at position 3 and the addition of a 13-amino acid extension at the N-terminus, IGF-1 LR3 exhibits a significantly longer half-life and reduced binding to insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) compared with native IGF-1.

Researchers have investigated IGF-1 LR3 for its role in cellular proliferation, protein synthesis, skeletal muscle physiology, tissue regeneration, and metabolic regulation. Its prolonged biological activity has made it a valuable research tool for studying IGF-1 signalling pathways and growth factor biology across a range of experimental models.

Areas of Scientific Interest

  • Research has investigated IGF-1 LR3 for its prolonged activation of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptors and downstream cellular signalling pathways.
  • Experimental studies have explored its role in cellular growth, protein synthesis, skeletal muscle physiology, and tissue regeneration.
  • Researchers have examined IGF-1 LR3 in studies involving metabolism, nutrient utilisation, and endocrine regulation.
  • Ongoing investigations continue to evaluate the biological effects of prolonged IGF-1 signalling in regenerative medicine, exercise physiology, and age-related research.
