IGF-1 LR3 (Long R3 Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1) is a synthetic, extended-half-life analogue of IGF-1. The LR3 modification reduces IGF-binding protein affinity, making it a useful research tool for studying IGF receptor activation and downstream signalling in cell culture contexts. It is supplied here strictly for in vitro and laboratory research purposes.
Scientific research has used IGF-1 LR3 extensively as a tool compound in cell biology studies examining growth factor signalling, proliferation pathways, and tissue culture models. These are research applications only and do not represent therapeutic endpoints.
Storage: Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C. This compound is particularly sensitive to temperature fluctuations and freeze-thaw cycles; minimize both. Use appropriate BSA or acetic acid reconstitution media as per research protocol.
