To investigate if IGFBP-5 maintains its intrinsic ability to modulate apoptosis in IGF-responsive cells, we used a non-IGF binding mutant of IGFBP-5.
In this study, IGF-1 LR3 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 LR3.
