Research Applications

DES(1-3)-IGF-1 lacks the N-terminal tripeptide of IGF-1, which markedly reduces its affinity for IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) while retaining IGF-1 receptor binding, making it a research tool for studying IGFBP-independent IGF-1 receptor signaling.
Activates the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway to drive myoblast proliferation and differentiation in cell culture models of skeletal muscle hypertrophy.
Used in rodent injury models to evaluate satellite cell activation and muscle regeneration following trauma or disuse.
Supports studies of tissue repair and wound healing, where IGF-1 receptor activation promotes mitogenic responses in fibroblasts and myoblasts.

IGF-DES — high-purity research peptide. Each batch is tested and ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA). For research and laboratory use only. Not for human or veterinary consumption.
