IGF1-LR3 (Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Long R3) is a modified version of naturally occurring IGF-1, engineered to extend its biological half-life and enhance receptor binding. The substitution of arginine at position 3 and removal of the first three amino acids significantly reduce binding to IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs), allowing for greater stability and activity during research studies.
Researchers have shown interest in IGF1-LR3 for its potential roles in:
-
Cellular growth and repair – investigating how IGF1-LR3 influences protein synthesis and cell regeneration.
-
Muscle tissue studies – examining anabolic pathways and muscle cell differentiation.
-
Neuroprotection – exploring IGF-1 analogues in cognitive and neurological research.
-
Metabolic processes – assessing the peptide’s effects on glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity.
This peptide has become a valuable tool in advanced laboratory studies, particularly when evaluating pathways involved in growth hormone signalling, tissue regeneration, and cellular survival mechanisms.
