IGF-1 DES

Buy IGF-1 DES Peptide India

IGF-1 DES, or Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 DES (1-3), is a truncated form of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1). This peptide boasts a shorter amino acid sequence, with the first three N-terminal amino acids cleaved, resulting in an overall increase in its biological activity.

The primary function of IGF-1 DES lies in its ability to stimulate growth and development of cells, primarily muscle and bone cells. This is achieved through its role in protein synthesis, where it acts as a mediator in the growth hormone (GH) signaling pathway. Upon GH binding to its receptor, IGF-1 is released, promoting cellular growth and proliferation.

Potential Benefits of IGF-1 DES Peptide

Enhanced Cell Therapy for Acute Kidney Injury (AKI): A study synthesized a bioactive hydrogel by immobilizing the C domain peptide of IGF-1 (IGF-1C) on chitosan, hypothesizing that this hydrogel could provide a favorable niche for cell therapy in treating AKI [1].
Cognitive Benefits: Research has explored the potential cognitive benefits of growth hormone/IGF-1 treatment, particularly in aged animals. The application of des-IGF-1 has been shown to alter the release probability for glutamate, which could have implications for cognitive function [2] and [3].
Muscle Hypertrophy and Regeneration: Research has shown localized IGF-1 transgene expression has been found to sustain hypertrophy and regeneration in senescent skeletal muscle [4]. This could potentially be beneficial for countering sarcopenia, an age-related condition characterized by loss of muscle mass and function [5].
Cardiac Health: According to research, cardiac-specific IGF-1 receptor transgenic expression has been shown to protect against cardiac fibrosis and diastolic dysfunction in a mouse model of diabetic cardiomyopathy [6].
Potential Role in Alzheimer’s Disease Treatment: Research suggests that IGF-1 treatment could potentially be beneficial in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), although definitive assessments of the benefits and risks are still needed [7].
Metabolic Regulation: Research studies indicate IGF-1, stimulated by growth hormone (GH), plays a role in regulating fat, protein, and glucose metabolism [8].
