Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers HEK293T-Tg(Human AT1 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which AT1 receptor stably expressed in HEK293T cells.
Description
HEK293T-Tg(Human AT1 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human AT1 (NM_000685.4 except for one silent mutation). This cell line can be used to study AT1 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;

Background
AT1 (Angiotensin II, type 1) receptor is an angiotensin receptor with vasopressor effects and regulates aldosterone secretion. It is essential in controlling blood pressure and volume in the cardiovascular system. AT1 receptor antagonists are drugs useful in the treatment of hypertension, diabetic nephropathy and congestive heart failure. Blockade of AT1 receptors could also be a novel approach in the treatment of mood disorders and neurodegenerative diseases of the brain.
