IGF-1 LR3 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Long Arg3) – Recombinant Research Peptide

For Laboratory Use Only – Not for Human or Veterinary Application

Product Overview

IGF-1 LR3 is a recombinant peptide analog of human insulin-like growth factor-1. This variant includes a 13-amino-acid N-terminal extension and a substitution of arginine at position 3, modifications that improve receptor interaction and reduce affinity for IGF-binding proteins.

This product is provided as a high-purity lyophilized powder, sealed for research-specific workflows only. It is not approved for therapeutic, diagnostic, or dietary use.

Product Specifications

Research Applications

IGF-1 LR3 is commonly used in laboratory settings for:

• IGF-1 receptor signaling and phosphorylation pathway assays
• Satellite cell activation and anabolic pathway modeling in muscle line studies
• Nutrient-sensing and metabolic pathway investigations
• Cellular aging, telomere research, and oxidative stress assays

All applications are preclinical, non-therapeutic, and investigational only.

Laboratory Rationale

• Extended In Vitro Half-Life: Longer stability than native IGF-1
• Reduced IGF-Binding Protein Affinity: Enhances assay performance and availability
• Consistent Signal Activation: Supports reliable results across validated protocols
• Minimized Off-Target Effects: Designed to reduce insulin-like interactions during controlled exposures

Handling & Reconstitution Guidelines

• Reconstitute with sterile bacteriostatic water using aseptic technique
• Gently mix without foaming or aggressive agitation
• Prepare aliquots for single-use if not used immediately
• Store reconstituted material at 2–8 °C or freeze per lab protocols

Compliance & Regulatory Notice

• Research Use Only: Not for diagnostic, therapeutic, or consumption purposes
• Not FDA Approved: No medical or health-related claims are made
• Minimum Purchase Age: 21 years or older
• Prohibited Uses: Not marketed or sold as a supplement, drug, or treatment
• Legal Responsibility: All use must comply with institutional and federal research regulations

Quality Assurance

IGF-1 LR3 is manufactured in sterile, controlled conditions and verified for identity and purity via third-party analytical testing. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is available on request to support lab compliance.
