IGF-1: The main factor for growth and repair in the living animal.

**CEM Store** · 09-06-2012, 11:34 AM

IGF1? What is it, where does it come from and what are its actions in living cells?

If you have any questions like this then you will want to continue reading because the subject here is IGF-1 and there is A LOT to know about this wonderful peptide.
First things first, what is a peptide?

Peptides are similar to amino acids (protein molecules). A peptide is a short, large molecule of an amino acid molecule that can bind to other molecules to form a larger molecule and they are called a peptide or protein depending on their size. [1] IGF-1 is one of these ?Peptides? and is found in every living mammal. It comes from another peptide hormone called growth hormone. Growth hormone is broken down in the liver to IGF1 then makes its way into the blood stream.

IGF1 can have many functions in living animals, from repairing injury/burns to growing new tissue altogether. IGF1 plays a very important role in the living body and without it the body would just waste away. [2] IGF1 has been found in many studies to have a profound anabolic effect along with helping in the process of new tissue growth and that is of interest because this opens the door to many possibilities in the possible applications for IGF1.

So if it is found in the body and made in the liver from growth hormone[3], how could you use it for any application or even harvest it?
Well you see we have come a LONG way in science and now have the technology for make peptides using a method called peptide synthesis (recombinant dna) and can make as much as we need, while not needing to rely on animal extractions of this peptide.[4]

We at CEMproducts offer is only the highest quality synthesized IGF-1 peptide for your research needs.
I have already stated IGF-1 can help with repair and growth of new tissue, but how?

IGF-1 effects are mediated by binding to specific receptors like the Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor(IGF1R). IGF1 receptors are present on many cells and in many tissues of the mammalian species. Binding to the IGF1R starts cellular signaling and IGF-1 is one of the most potent natural activators of the ?AKT signaling pathway?, a stimulator of cell growth and proliferation, and an inhibitor of programmed cell death. IGF-1 is also the primary cause for a lot of the effect you see with growth hormone (GH) in the body, making IGF1 one on the most sought after peptides on the market today!

IGF-1 stimulates growth, and has growth-promoting effects on almost every cell in the body, and a large part of it is skeletal muscle, cartilage, bone, organs (and skin), nerves and so on. The effects of IGF1 in the living animal are astounding and although IGF1 has some insulin-like effects in the body, it can also regulate cell growth and development and insulin would not have some of these effects hens the name ?insulin like growth factor? (IGF).[4]

As you can see, IGF-1 has a lot to offer in the research and development field and we at CEMproducts are proud to offer only the highest quality peptides for your research needs!

Nice!!!!

Nothing better than research.

**Chrisotpherm** · 09-21-2012, 12:43 PM

Agreed. My rats love IGF.

I happen to enjoy IGF-1 products (the type CEM carries) but it should be noted that the type of research conducted on the effects of IGF-1 are centered around that which the body produces endogenously, not exogenous IGF-1 introduced via injections. While I've used IGF-1 Lr3 with great results, the fact of the matter is the studies and articles cited by many companies trying to sell you their peptides are IRRELEVANT. Unless the study demonstrates results using exogenous IGF-1, it doesn't support anything.

So while I recommend the product, I also recommend research chemical companies start being HONEST with their customers about what exactly these articles and studies are saying. To be 150% clear, the studies and articles on the effects of IGF-1 are ALL concerned with IGF-1 produced WITHIN the body (whether naturally or in response to GH/testosterone injections), and have no correlation to the type of IGF-1 being sold online for injection. No correlation at all, unless you have a collection of peer-reviewed scientific evidence suggesting otherwise. I'm not saying we won't have that evidence someday (I happen to think we will), but until then stop pretending we do.

Ok,ok so is it pointless to run IGF -1 LR3 with some HGH? Or is that just straight up dangerous? Great thread though. I actually signed up today because of this threads like this!!

I hear what you are saying I do.
So let me ask you this..what hormones produced withing the body ..when introduced exogenously DONT exhibit or induce the effects of the endegenously produced hormone? Synthetic derivatives included. Test does / t3 does / hgh does / estrogen does - they ALL do..
None of them are exactly bioidentical to the endegenous hormone, they are synthtic derivative or in many cases analogs and yet they all exhibit the effects of that hormone. Your point has little basis in real world practical application and is more of a stretch based on practical data (which you admit yourself igf lr3 has yielded you great results) than any insinuations the RC is making. If you say something is true , and it is true in every other example , and it is true in the real world as far as results...call me crazy but Id hardly call that deceptive or misleading in any way.

awesome post!
I also like IGF1 research ;-)

**Popeye.** · 06-04-2013, 09:02 AM

Question: If I used igf1 in a study with a peptide that is supposed to boost hGH (say ghrp6) would it mess up the boost of the hGH from the ghrp6 at all?
Is it ok to use both and have both work as they should?
I want overall hGH boost, but the igf1 seems to be loved by a lot of people also.

Thanks.

Yes you can use igf1 with a ghrp/cjc combo.
