CytoGrow™ Recombinant IGF-1 (Human), HEK293, Tag Free
Recombinant human Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) is produced in HEK293 cells to ensure native human post-translational modifications and proper protein folding. This tag-free protein closely resembles the natural human IGF-1, making it ideal for sensitive biological and biochemical assays without interference from affinity tags.
IGF-1 is a key growth factor involved in cellular growth, differentiation, and survival. It plays critical roles in metabolism, development, and tissue repair by activating the IGF-1 receptor signaling pathway. Recombinant IGF-1 is widely used in research focused on cell proliferation, metabolic regulation, aging, and regenerative medicine.
