Description

IGF-DES (DES(1-3)IGF-1) is a truncated analog of insulin-like growth factor-1 missing the first three N-terminal amino acids, which reduces its binding to IGF-binding proteins and increases its local potency. It is used as a tool compound in growth-factor research. Supplied for in-vitro and laboratory research only — not for human or veterinary use.

Research FAQ

Compound and research-use information

What is IGF-1 DES?

IGF-1 DES (DES(1-3) IGF-1) is a truncated synthetic analog of insulin-like growth factor 1 lacking the first three N-terminal residues. It is supplied strictly for laboratory research use.

What is IGF-1 DES studied for in the research setting?

IGF-1 DES is used in vitro as a cell-culture reagent and reference ligand to study IGF-1-receptor signaling with reduced IGF-binding-protein interaction. It is a research reagent only.

What form is Aurevena's IGF-1 DES supplied in?

IGF-1 DES is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Every batch is tested by independent, accredited U.S. laboratories for purity and identity, with the Certificate of Analysis published on this product page. Store lyophilized peptide cold and protected from light, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Is IGF-1 DES intended for human use?

No. IGF-1 DES is sold by Aurevena strictly for laboratory and research use only. It is not a drug, dietary supplement, cosmetic, or medical device, and is not intended for human or veterinary use, consumption, or for the diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease.
