Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human EP3 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which EP3 receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human EP3 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human EP3 (NM_000957). This cell line can be used to study EP3 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.
Applications
EP3 receptor function, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic interventions.

Background
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is involved in a number of physiologic and pathophysiologic events in many tissues of the body. The biologic effects of PGE2 are mediated through interaction with specific membrane-bound G protein-coupled prostanoid EP receptors. EP3 receptor (or PTGER3) is expressed as multiple transcripts through alternative splicing, with each transcript showing a different tissue-specific distribution. PGE2 may mediate fever generation in response to both endogenous and exogenous pyrogens by acting at the EP3 receptor. EP3-mediated neuronal pathways converge at corticotropin-releasing hormone containing neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus to induce HPA axis activation during sickness.
