Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers HEK293T-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human CCR8 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which CCR8 receptor stably expressed in HEK293T cells which overexpress Gαqi5.
Description
HEK293T-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human CCR8 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human CCR8 (NM_005201.2) and Gαqi5 gene. This cell line can be used to study CCR8 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

Background
CCR8 (C-C chemokine receptor type 8) is a receptor for the chemokines CCL1 (I-309). The receptor regulates monocyte chemotaxis and thymic cell line apoptosis, and is an additional alternative coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection. CCR8 plays a role on cell types of relevance to respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic bronchitis. The interference of CCR8 from its ligand represents a new approach in allergy therapy.
