Message: | What is IGF-1Lr3
IGF-1Lr3 is basically a polypeptide hormone that has the same some of the same molecular properties as insulin.Ig-f-1 dose actually stand for insulin-like growth factor. IGF-1Lr3 is mainly responsible for long bone growth in children and it also affects muscle growth and repair of adults. IGF-1Lr3 is a more potent version of IGF-1Lr3. It's chemically altered i like to think "enhanced" to prevent deactivation by IGF-1Lr3 binding proteins in the bloodstream. This results in a longer half-life of 20-30 hours instead of 20 min... So that means a far more effective version than the short chain we we re perhaps more familiar with.IGF-1Lr3 is also known as IGF-1Lr3 or Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Long Arg3.
Variants
Ig-f-1 variants are split into two groups: IGF-1Lr3 and DES IGF (usually presented as IGF DES). Base IGF has a very short half life (about 10-20 minutes); as a result, it is quickly destroyed by the body. This is why Ig-f-1 was modified to make the amino acid analog Long R3 Ig-f-1 The other variant of Ig-f1 called DES Ig-f1 is a truncated version that is 10X more potent than Ig-f1. Both variants are similar to its root but have different actions, allowing them to function in a specific ways. |
