Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers HEK293T-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human CXCR1 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which CXCR1 receptor stably expressed in HEK293T cells which overexpress Gαqi5.
Description
HEK293T-Tg(Human Gαqi5//Human CXCR1 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human CXCR1 (NM_000634.2) and Gαqi5 gene. This cell line can be used to study CXCR1 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
CXCR1 is a high affinity interleukin-8 receptor (IL-8RA). Binding of IL-8 to the receptor causes activation of neutrophils. Neutrophils have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many inflammatory lung diseases, including acute respiratory distress syndrome, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and asthma. Antagonists of CXCR1 may block in vivo trafficking of neutrophils, suggesting that antagonism of IL-8 at the receptor level is a viable therapeutic strategy.
