IGF-1 LR3
IGF-1 LR3 Product Description — Research Use Only
IGF-1 LR3, also known as Long R3 Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1, is a synthetic research peptide analog of IGF-1. It is commonly studied for IGF-1 receptor activity, cellular growth signaling, protein-balance pathways, tissue-repair research, glucose-transport activity, and muscle-cell development models.
Research on IGF-1 LR3 has most commonly focused on IGF-1 receptor signaling, cellular growth pathways, protein synthesis, muscle-cell research, tissue repair, metabolic activity, and cell-survival signaling. Published structural research describes Long-[Arg3]IGF-I as a potent IGF-I analog modified with an arginine substitution at position 3 and a 13-amino-acid extension at the N-terminus.
IGF-1 LR3 is commonly studied for:
IGF-1 receptor activity — how the compound interacts with IGF-1 receptor pathways
Cell growth signaling — how cells respond to growth-related signals
Protein synthesis — pathways connected to building and maintaining proteins
Muscle-cell research — how muscle cells grow, repair, and adapt in research settings
Tissue-repair pathways — biological signals involved in repair and restoration
Glucose transport — how cells move and use glucose for energy
Cell survival signaling — how cells respond to stress and maintain normal activity
IGF-1 LR3 is commonly studied because it is a modified form of IGF-1 designed for stronger and longer-lasting receptor-pathway research compared with native IGF-1. IGF-1 receptor biology is broadly connected to cell growth, differentiation, survival, and metabolic regulation, making IGF-1 LR3 useful in studies involving growth-factor signaling and repair-related pathways.
