  • Binding of [3H]-5HT to membranes from cells stably expressing m5HT2b receptor. Membranes from recombinant CHO-K1 cells expressing the m5HT2b receptor were isolated and stored frozen. Radioligand binding studies were performed by incubating membranes with the indicated concentration of [3H]-5HT for 60 min at room temperature, then filtering rapidly over GF/C filters which were then counted in an LSC. Data represent averages of duplicate determinations. 5-HT (10 µM) was used to define non-specific binding.
  • Intracellular calcium response from CHO-K1 cells stably expressing mouse 5HT2b receptors (red) or untransfected controls (black). Cells were loaded with Fluo-4NW then stimulated with the indicated concentrations of α-methylserotonin. Calcium responses were recorded on a FlexStation plate reader. Data represent the average +/- standard deviation of triplicate determinations.

Quick Overview

Mouse 5HT2b Serotonin Receptor-expressing GPCR (G protein-coupled receptor) stable, replicating cell line.

Background

Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) exerts its many physiological effects through 13 distinct receptor subtypes in humans. These subtypes fall into seven structurally-defined classes (5HT1 to 5HT7). 5HT2b receptors are expressed in the brain, vasculature, smooth muscle, uterus, and stomach. This receptor has been used as a target for developing drugs to treat migraine, anxiety, and irritable bowel syndrome.
