Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I).

  1. 01LabNot a test of IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I) aloneIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In SH-EP cells, des(1‑3)IGF-I stimulated growth with similar ligand specificity to IGF-II and IGF-I, and greater activity than insulin.

    In plain wordsIn cells, des(1‑3)IGF-I supported growth similarly to IGF-II and IGF-I, with greater activity than insulin.

    Summary
    Stimulation of cell growth via this receptor was also indicated by the ligand specificity for IGF analogs and insulin (IGF-II approximately IGF-I approximately des(1-3)IGF-I >> insulin).

    In this study, IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I).
