Short Decsription
Creative Biolabs offers HEK293T-Tg(Human mGlu5 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell which mGlu5 receptor stably expressed in HEK293T cells.
Description
HEK293T-Tg(Human mGlu5 Receptor) Division-Arrested Cell was engineered to express the receptor human mGlu5 (NM_000842.1). This cell line can be used to study mGlu5 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.

Background
The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are divided into 3 groups on the basis of sequence homology, putative signal transduction mechanisms, and pharmacological properties. Group II and group III mGluRs are linked to inhibition of the cyclic AMP cascade, but differ in their agonist selectivity. mGluR5 is a member of Group I. It mainly expresses the brain although its precise role in various cortical functions remains unclear.
