IGF-1 LR3
hormonal compound
IGF-1 LR3 is a long-acting synthetic analog of insulin-like growth factor-1 engineered for enhanced biological stability and systemic tissue interaction. It is utilized in specialized research to modulate anabolic signaling and encourage cellular proliferation in specific tissue models.
Research Areas
Mechanism of Action
The peptide exerts its effects by selectively binding to the IGF-1 receptor, which initiates downstream activation of the PI3K/Akt and mTOR pathways to facilitate protein synthesis and cellular hyperplasia.
Biological Pathways
