Target Information
Rabbit Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1) is a key growth factor that promotes cell proliferation, differentiation, and tissue repair. It plays a crucial role in bone and cartilage development, stimulating the synthesis of type II collagen and proteoglycans essential for cartilage integrity. IGF1 also enhances the proliferation of chondrocytes and supports the repair of cartilage defects. In rabbits, IGF1 has been used to study its effects on auricular cartilage autograft viability, showing potential for tissue engineering applications. Additionally, IGF1 is involved in hair follicle growth and development, promoting the transition from the resting phase to the growth phase in rabbit models. These studies highlight IGF1's multifunctional role in growth, repair, and regeneration processes.
