IGF-1 LR3 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Long R3) is a synthetic analog of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) developed for laboratory and preclinical research. It has been structurally modified to exhibit reduced binding to certain IGF-binding proteins, a characteristic that has been investigated in experimental models for its influence on pharmacological behavior and biological activity.
IGF-1 LR3 interacts with the IGF-1 receptor and serves as a research tool for studying receptor signaling, peptide biology, and cellular communication pathways. Ongoing laboratory research continues to examine its role in areas including cell signaling, protein metabolism, growth factor biology, and metabolic processes.
Key Research Areas:
Muscle biological process
Growth factor signaling
Cell growth and proliferation
Connective Tissue Regeneration
Nerve cell survival
Collagen production
