Published research context (not product claims)
IGF-1 DES(1–3) is used in literature as a receptor-ligand tool: truncation reduces binding to some IGF-binding proteins, which is why papers compare it with full-length IGF-1 in cell-signalling and binding assays. Those studies are experimental. They are not muscle-building or growth claims for this vial.
IGF-axis peptides are prohibited in sport by WADA. There is no UK marketing authorisation for this research listing.
