MGF

Description

MGF — IGF-1 Gene Splice-Variant Peptide

MGF (Mechano-Growth Factor) is a splice variant of the IGF-1 gene, encoding a short C-terminal peptide sequence distinct from mature IGF-1. It is supplied for in vitro laboratory research only.

Research context

Preclinical literature has examined MGF in satellite-cell activation and myoblast fusion cell culture models, using IGF-1 receptor-adjacent signalling assays as a readout. Comparative studies in animal models have examined local versus systemic expression of IGF-1 splice variants following mechanical loading.
