GLP1R Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GLP1R

Official Full Name: glucagon like peptide 1 receptorprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a 7-transmembrane protein that functions as a receptor for glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) hormone, which stimulates glucose-induced insulin secretion. This receptor, which functions at the cell surface, becomes internalized in response to GLP-1 and GLP-1 analogs, and it plays an important role in the signaling cascades leading to insulin secretion. It also displays neuroprotective effects in animal models. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with diabetes. The protein is an important drug target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and stroke. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]

Background

GLP1R Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specially engineered cellular models that have had the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) gene disrupted or eliminated, providing a powerful tool for researchers studying glucose metabolism and hormonal signaling pathways. The primary function of these cell lines is to enable an investigation into the physiological and pathophysiological roles of GLP1R, allowing for a more profound understanding of its involvement in diabetes, obesity, and other metabolic disorders. By creating a controlled environment where GLP1R is absent, scientists can analyze cellular responses and compensatory mechanisms in various experimental paradigms.

The significance of GLP1R Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends far beyond basic research. In clinical settings, these models are crucial for the development and testing of therapeutic agents targeting GLP1R, including GLP-1 receptor agonists that are currently employed in diabetes management. By utilizing these knockout lines, researchers can elucidate the efficacy, safety, and mechanism of action of new treatments, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Compared to traditional cell lines that express GLP1R, our knockout cell lines offer a unique advantage by significantly reducing background signal interference during experiments, allowing for clearer and more interpretable results. Additionally, these lines are derived under stringent good manufacturing practices (GMP), ensuring high reproducibility and reliability, which is essential for translating findings from the lab to clinical applications.

For researchers and clinicians dedicated to tackling metabolic diseases, GLP1R Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a valuable resource that advances scientific understanding and fosters innovative therapeutic approaches. Our company, with its strong commitment to the development of high-quality biological products, ensures that our offerings meet the rigorous standards expected in both research and clinical settings, empowering investigators to make impactful discoveries in the field of metabolic health.
