Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers CHO-K1-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human Y1 Receptor) Stable Cell Line which Y1 receptor stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells which overexpress Gαqi5.
Description
CHO-K1-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human Y1 Receptor) Stable Cell Line was engineered to express the receptor human Y1 (NM_000909) and Gαqi5 gene. NPY1R is a receptor for neuropeptide Y that is the most abundant peptide present in the mammalian central and peripheral nervous system. This cell line can be used to study Y1 receptor function, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic interventions.

Background
NPY1R (Neuropeptide Y receptor type 1) is a receptor for neuropeptide Y that is the most abundant peptide present in the mammalian central and peripheral nervous system. Neuropeptide Y exhibits a variety of potent central and peripheral effects including those on feeding, memory, blood pressure, cardiac contractility and intestinal secretions. Neuropeptide Y effects are mediated by several different receptor subtypes, Y- 1, Y-1-like, Y-2, Y-3, Y-4 and Y-5. NPY1R is correlated with food feeding and subnanomolar antagonists of NPY1R have been discovered as potential anti-obesity agents. NPY1R is also involved in cardiovascular actions of exogenous neuropeptide Y and plays a role in maintaining basal blood pressure and heart rate in ischaemic heart failure.
