MGF
PEG-MGF · Mechano Growth Factor · IGF-1Ec
Mechano Growth Factor, a splice variant of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1Ec in humans) expressed in mechanically loaded or damaged muscle. Its unique C-terminal E-domain peptide is studied for satellite-cell activation and muscle repair. PEG-MGF is a pegylated synthetic version of that peptide. Research material not approved for human use.
Half-life
Native peptide very short (minutes); pegylation (PEG-MGF) extends stability. No established human PK. Half-life is an educational pharmacology figure, drawn from public sources, and is not a schedule or dosing instruction.
Storage & handling
Supplied lyophilized; store cold, reconstitute before use, then refrigerate and protect from light.
