Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(cynomolgus monkey GLP-1 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which GLP-1 receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(cynomolgus monkey GLP-1 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor cynomolgus monkey GLP-1 (NM_001287663.1) and β-Arrestin2 gene. This cell line can be used to study GLP-1 receptor function, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic interventions. Dividing-arrest cells are cells that are normally kept under specific culture conditions or treated with agents that prevent cell division from being held in a non-dividing state. This can be achieved through methods such as serum starvation, chemical inhibitors of cell cycle progression, or genetic modification.

Background
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) is a G protein-coupled receptor for the endogenous insulinotropic peptide glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP1R is expressed in pancreatic cells and the nervous system, and mediate the effects of GLP-1 in regulating glucose homeostasis through multiple mechanisms including direct actions on the endocrine pancreas and indirect activation of central nervous system controlling gastric emptying, satiety, and body weight. In the brain, receptor activation elicits neurotrophic actions through protection against metabolic and oxidative insults. GLP1R is also implicated in plasticity, memory, and learning. Thus, GLP1R is a potential therapeutic target for both cognitive-enhancing and neuroprotective agents and in the treatment of stroke and Parkinsonism.
