Description
IGF-1 LR3 (Long R3 IGF-1) is a synthetic analog of human insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). It contains a 13-amino-acid N-terminal extension and an arginine substitution at position 3, modifications that substantially reduce its interaction with IGF-binding proteins while retaining activity at the IGF-1 receptor. The direct evidence for IGF-1 LR3 is primarily cellular and animal research, rather than controlled human clinical research, so human therapeutic or performance claims should be avoided.
