Description

PEG MGF (Pegylated Mechano Growth Factor) is a man-made analog of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1. It is used in the treatment of muscle wasting, osteoporosis and wound healing. It is manufactured as PEG MGF 2mg per vial injections containing 2mg of Pegylated Mechano Growth Factor and excipients.

PEG MGF Mechanism of Action

As an analog of IGF-1, PEG MGF stimulates growth across cells and causes differentiation of tissues. It binds to the IGF1 receptor to promote growth in almost every part of the body. It also signals several growth pathways that result in increased growth and it inhibits the pathway of cellular death. It is this feature that makes it useful in treating muscle wasting, osteoporosis and useful for wound healing. Pegylation of MGF is what increases the half-life to about 2 to 3 days, from just a few minutes.
