Product Overview
Mechano Growth Factor (MGF) is a synthetic research peptide studied for its role in muscle tissue signalling and cellular response pathways associated with mechanical stress. This 2 mg lyophilized preparation is intended for controlled laboratory research focused on muscle regeneration signalling, satellite cell activation models and growth-factor–related biochemical pathways.

Peptide Overview
MGF is a splice variant of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and is produced locally in muscle tissue in response to mechanical load. Scientific interest in MGF increased during the 1990s as researchers identified its distinct structure and localised signalling behaviour compared to systemic IGF-1.

Historical Background and Scientific Context
Between 1985 and 1995, insulin-like growth factor pathways became a central focus of muscle physiology research. In the mid-1990s, MGF was identified as a mechanically induced IGF-1 splice variant with a unique C-terminal sequence linked to muscle repair and adaptation mechanisms.

From 2000 onward, MGF has been widely utilised in laboratory research investigating muscle hypertrophy signalling, satellite cell dynamics and tissue adaptation responses following mechanical stimulation. Between 2015 and 2025, synthetic MGF peptides have been increasingly used in controlled experimental models to study local growth-factor signalling pathways.
