Mechano-Growth Factor (MGF) is an alternative name for the Insulin-like Growth Factor-1Eb (IGF-1Eb), an isoform of IGF-1. It has been studied for its potential in remodeling muscles, cellular survival, and cellular proliferation.[1] New studies on this specific isoform highlight its potential for activating satellite cells in skeletal muscle, suggesting that this particular isoform may also activate satellite cells in skeletal muscle, protect neurons, and help overcome muscle mass loss.[2] The principal function of MGF is its possible efficacy in reparating severe muscle wear and tear. Further, its concentration appears to correspond with skeletal muscle growth and differentiation found in rodent models.
