Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human 5-HT2A Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which 5-HT2A receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human 5-HT2A Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human 5-HT2A (NM_000621). This cell line can be used to study 5-HT2A 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
5-HT2A (5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2A) is a receptor for serotonin. It is expressed throughout the central nervous system in the neocortex and olfactory tubercle. Additionally, it is expressed in platelets, fibroblasts and neurons of the peripheral nervous system. 5-HT2A receptor agonists may have important clinical value in the treatment of various disorders, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. It is also a receptor for the human polyomavirus, JC virus.
