General description
Millipore′s Ready-to-Assay GPCR frozen cells are designed for simple, rapid calcium assays with no requirement for intensive cell culturing. Millipore has optimized the freezing conditions to provide cells with high viability and functionality post-thaw. The user simply thaws the cells, resuspends them in media, and allows them to recover for 24 hours. The following day the cells are counted, plated, and assayed for calcium response.
The histamine H2 receptor is a widely distributed G-protein coupled receptor, which is important in regulating a host of physiologic actions extending from gastric acid secretion to gastrointestinal motility (Del Valle and Gantz, 1997). Histamine mediated activation of its receptor leads to signaling through both adenylate cyclase and phosphoinositide /protein kinase C second messenger systems (Hill, 1990). Antagonists for this receptor have proven to be effective therapy for acid peptic disorders of the GI tract. Certain antagonists are used in the treatment of neuropsychiatric and neurological diseases e.g. schizophrenia, Alzheimer′s disease and Parkinson′s disease. Millipore′s cloned human H2-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-2 host, which supports high levels of recombinant H2 expression on the cell surface for functional detection via the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for agonists, antagonists and modulators at H2.
