Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human delta Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which delta receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human delta Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human delta (NM_000911.3). This cell line can be used to study delta 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.
Features
Well-characterized stable cell lines;
for cell-based high-throughput screening;
Low-cost evaluation of stable cell lines or limited quantities of compounds.

delta receptor function, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic interventions.

Background
δ opioid receptor (DOR) inhibits neurotransmitter release by reducing Ca++ currents and increasing K+ conductance. In rats, morphine tolerance is associated with DOR-mediated activation of cortical CCKergic systems. There are indications that some DOR antagonists produce potent antitussive effects and may be considered as candidates of antitussive drugs. In contrast, some DOR agonists have shown antinociceptive, seizuregenic and convulsive properties, implicating a role for the DOR in depression. Early clinical experiments have demonstrated that exogenously administered opioid peptides had antidepressant activity in human patients, suggesting that the receptor may provide a new therapeutic target for treating depression.
