any info on this new drug that is suppose to be better then IGF?

Mechano growth factor
Research on mechano growth factor: its potential for optimising physical training as well as misuse in doping
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mechano growth factor can produce rapid increases in muscle and strength, giving it considerable therapeutic and doping potential
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Abbreviations: IGF, insulin-like growth factor; MGF, mechano growth factor
Keywords: mechano growth factor (MGF); physical training; doping

The sequencing of the human genome showed that there are only about 40 000 genes. However, there are many more proteins. This is because some genes are spliced to produce different protein/peptides which usually have different biological functions. Combining physiological and molecular biology methods made it possible for our team to identify and characterise a local muscle growth/repair factor (MGF). This we found is derived from the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) gene by alternative splicing, but, owing to a reading frame shift, MGF has a unique C-terminal peptide. After resistance exercise, the IGF-I gene is spliced towards MGF which "kick starts" hypertrophy and repair of local muscle damage by activating the muscle stem cells as well as anabolic processes. Interestingly, loss of muscle mass in old age and in certain diseases is associated with an impaired ability to express MGF. In these conditions it seems that . . . [Full text of this article]
Where are you reading about this BBD?
Yo Beast your doing 25mcgs in each arm right? and your also doing it in the body part worked as well?The_Beast said:I began using it 4 days ago. 50mcg bilaterally in the biceps. Some observations:
- The biceps definetly seem more "pumped" and hard most of the day.
- Vascularity is vastly improved so far.
As far as gains go, I don't think that we should expect a huge "tape" growth. Even the most positive research indicated a 25% increase over a period of weeks. This led many peoples to believe that this would mean gaining around 2-3" on their arms (given a "conservative" 15-20% increase). This isn't so... we must consider that the biceps is something like 2/5 of the upper arm muscle mass. Then we should also consider that a lot of the size of the arm is not actually muscle, rather skeletal structure. A 19" arm is probably around 12-14" of muscle tissue. If the biceps are 2/5 of the muscle mass of the UA that amounts to around 4-6". So we could realistically expect a "tape increase" of around 0.75-1.0" at the most. And if this is localized on the biceps it IS a significant gain and will lead to a positive visual impact. However we must be realistic and not expect super important "tape gains".
Now, everything seems to be going good. But then again it might be a placebo effect, time will tell.
