Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human alpha2A Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which alpha2A receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human alpha2A Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human alpha2A (NM_000681.2). This cell line can be used to study alpha2A 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
Adrenergic α2a receptor belongs to the group of nine adrenoceptors that mediate the biological actions of adrenaline and noradrenaline. The α2a receptor is expressed in the brain, spleen, kidney, heart and gastrointestinal tract. It is centrally predominant and exerts a tonic sympathoinhibitory function, whereas peripherally it has a vasoconstrictive effect. The α2a receptor is also involved in sedation, digestive functions and analgesia.
