Product Overview

Overview

Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1) is a representative growth factor that mediates growth hormone action, regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. It acts across diverse tissue types and is involved in cell growth, migration, and regeneration processes. It also possesses physiological functions related to energy metabolism and tissue homeostasis maintenance. This recombinant IGF1 is produced through an E. coli expression system, offering high purity and stable activity for application in a wide range of research and formulation contexts.
