Overview

This product has been discontinued.





Recombinant, human insulin-like growth factor-I (70 amino acids) expressed in E. coli. Has about 40% homology to insulin and produces metabolic effects similar to insulin. Acts as an important local regulator of bone formation. Increases bone formation and bone resorption. Also inhibits etoposide-induced apoptosis in BALB/c 3T3 cells. Stimulates the activity of protein tyrosine kinases in both normal and diethylstilbestrol-treated hamster kidneys. Primarily involved in response of cells to growth hormones.

SynonymsrhIGF-I, Somatomedin-C
DescriptionRecombinant, human insulin-like growth factor-I (70 amino acids) expressed in E. coli. Growth-promoting, single-chain polypeptide hormone that is structurally, functionally, and genetically related to insulin. Has about 40% homology to insulin and produces metabolic effects similar to insulin. Functionally, the IGFs share three activities with insulin: demonstrate insulin-like metabolic activity, induce sulfate uptake into cartilage proteoglycans, and induce mitotic activity in selected cell lines. Acts as an important local regulator of bone formation. Also inhibits etoposide-induced apoptosis in BALB/c 3T3 cells.
