MGF
MGF (Mechano Growth Factor) is a splice variant of IGF-1 that is expressed in muscle tissue in response to mechanical stress. Research has explored its role in muscle repair, satellite cell activation, and localized muscle growth. It is believed to play a crucial role in the muscle adaptation response to training.
