What is MGF (Mechano Growth Factor)?

A synthetic 24-amino-acid peptide corresponding to a splice variant of insulin-like growth factor 1 that the body produces after muscle is strained, MGF is studied for its role in muscle repair. Research focuses on how its E-domain signals differently from mature insulin-like growth factor 1, affecting muscle cell proliferation and timing.

  • Studied for the distinct signalling of its E-domain versus mature IGF-1.
  • Investigated in research models for muscle-cell proliferation.
  • Examined for its role in the response of muscle to mechanical strain.
  • Used as a research tool to study satellite-cell activation.

For research use only. Not intended for human use.

Differential splicing of the IGF-1 gene under mechanical load conditions produces a distinct C-terminal peptide significant in IGF-1 biology. MGF, also known as Mechano Growth Factor or IGF-1Ec, is a 24-amino acid fragment with a molecular weight of 2867.26 g/mol. Produced via solid-phase peptide synthesis.

In vitro studies using satellite cell isolates have investigated whether MGF activates proliferative cascades through mechanisms distinct from those initiated by mature IGF-1, with particular attention to ERK1/2 phosphorylation patterns. In vivo rodent models have explored the temporal expression profile of endogenous IGF-1Ec mRNA following mechanical loading protocols.

Manufactured in a quality-controlled laboratory to a guaranteed purity of 98% or above. Every batch undergoes independent third-party testing using HPLC and MS-UPLC analysis before dispatch. Vials are vacuum sealed and stored in a temperature-controlled, monitored cold storage system. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis is available on request.

Sold strictly for in vitro research purposes only. Not for human consumption. Intended for use by qualified researchers in laboratory settings only.
