Product Specifications
Description
All presented information is based on scientific publications which can be found at the end of product description below.
IGF1-LR3 features an arginine substitution at position 3 and a 13-amino-acid N-terminal extension that reduce IGFBP binding, resulting in increased bioavailability and prolonged activity.
Research Highlights
1. Growth Factor Signaling โ Higher free concentrations and enhanced tissue-level activity vs native IGF-1.
2. Cell Proliferation โ Sustained PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK pathway activation across multiple tissue types.
3. Muscle Biology โ Supports satellite cell activation, myoblast proliferation, and myofiber hypertrophy.
4. Metabolic Effects โ Insulin-like effects on glucose uptake and lipid metabolism with distinct receptor selectivity.
5. Tissue Engineering โ Widely used as growth supplement in cell culture and serum-free conditions.

Frequently asked questions
- Each batch is HPLC-MS verified at โฅ99% purity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) including HPLC chromatograms and mass spectrometry data is provided with every shipment.
- Store the lyophilised vial at -20ยฐC, protected from light. Once reconstituted for in-vitro work, follow your laboratory's standard handling and stability protocols. Most reconstituted peptides remain stable at 2-8ยฐC for short-term use.
- No. All Peptra Labs peptides are supplied strictly for laboratory and educational research use only. They are not approved for human or veterinary administration, are not evaluated by the FDA or EMA, and must not be used as drugs, supplements, or cosmetic products.
- We ship across the EU and the United Kingdom. Most orders arrive within 2-5 business days. Free shipping on orders over โฌ300.
- Every order includes the product, a Certificate of Analysis (HPLC + MS data, lot number, synthesis date, storage recommendations), and an invoice. Research-use disclaimers are stated on both packaging and documentation.
