IGF-1 LR3 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Long R3) is a synthetic analog of IGF-1 engineered for enhanced stability, reduced binding to IGF-binding proteins, and prolonged biological activity. It retains the growth-promoting and metabolic functions of native IGF-1 but exhibits greater receptor availability and longer half-life, making it useful in experimental research.
Peptide Length: 70 amino acids with N-terminal Arg modification (LR3)
Enhanced Stability: Resistant to proteolytic degradation
Potency: Increased activation of IGF-1 receptor pathways due to reduced binding to IGF-binding proteins
Water Solubility: Linear peptide suitable for laboratory use
Studying cellular proliferation and growth signaling pathways
Research on muscle, cartilage, and bone regeneration
Investigation of anti-apoptotic mechanisms and tissue repair
Metabolic studies including glucose uptake and lipid metabolism
IGF-1 LR3 is a long-acting IGF-1 analog with enhanced bioactivity and stability, widely used in research to explore growth factor signaling, tissue regeneration, and metabolic effects, strictly for experimental or in vitro applications.
Type: Synthetic peptide analog of IGF-1
Amino Acid Sequence: 70 amino acids with an Arginine substitution at position 3 (Long R3)
Molecular Weight: ~9.7 kDa
Structure: Linear peptide with N-terminal modification for reduced binding to IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs)
Receptor Interaction: Binds to IGF-1 receptor (IGF1R) to stimulate intracellular growth and survival signaling pathways
Reduced IGFBP Binding: Minimizes sequestration by IGF-binding proteins, enhancing bioavailability and receptor activation
Signal Transduction: Activates PI3K/Akt/mTOR and MAPK/ERK pathways, promoting protein synthesis, cell proliferation, and anti-apoptotic effects
Stability: Resistant to proteolytic degradation compared to native IGF-1, extending half-life and activity
Cell Growth & Proliferation: Stimulates muscle, bone, and connective tissue growth
Tissue Repair & Regeneration: Enhances healing in experimental wound and tissue models
Metabolic Regulation: Mimics insulin-like effects, facilitating glucose uptake and lipid metabolism
Anti-Apoptotic Activity: Promotes cell survival under stress conditions
Water Soluble: Can be dissolved in sterile water or buffer
Sensitive to: Heat, repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and extreme pH
Storage Stability: Maintained best as lyophilized powder at low temperatures
IGF-1 LR3 is a synthetic, long-acting IGF-1 analog with enhanced stability, reduced IGFBP binding, and potent receptor-mediated activity.
