Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human 5-HT2C Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which 5-HT2C receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human 5-HT2C Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human 5-HT2C (NM_000868). This cell line can be used to study 5-HT2C 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-HT2C (5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2C) is a receptor for serotonin. It is expressed in the brain and spinal cord, especially the choroid plexus. 5-HT2C receptor agonists may have important clinical value in the treatment of mental and eating disorders, such as depression, panic anxiety, OCD, bulimia and obesity.
