Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human mu Receptor) Stable Cell Line which mu receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells which overexpress Gαqi5.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human mu Receptor) Stable Cell Line was engineered to express the receptor human mu (NM_000914.2) and Gαqi5 gene. The mu-opioid receptor plays a pivotal role in pain modulation, reward processing, and addiction. This cell line can be used to study mu receptor function, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic interventions.

Background
The mu-opioid receptor, often abbreviated as MOR or μ-opioid receptor, is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) primarily known for its role in mediating the effects of endogenous opioids and opioid drugs. The mu-opioid receptor plays a pivotal role in pain modulation, reward processing, and addiction. Its complex physiological effects and clinical implications underscore ongoing efforts to understand its mechanisms and develop targeted therapies that balance therapeutic benefits with risks of misuse and dependence.
