IL18R1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: IL18R1

Official Full Name: interleukin 18 receptor 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine receptor that belongs to the interleukin 1 receptor family. This receptor specifically binds interleukin 18 (IL18), and is essential for IL18 mediated signal transduction. IFN-alpha and IL12 are reported to induce the expression of this receptor in NK and T cells. This gene along with four other members of the interleukin 1 receptor family, including IL1R2, IL1R1, ILRL2 (IL-1Rrp2), and IL1RL1 (T1/ST2), form a gene cluster on chromosome 2q. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Background

IL18R1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell lines engineered for the precise disruption of the IL18R1 gene, which encodes the interleukin-18 receptor 1. This receptor plays a critical role in the immune response by mediating the effects of interleukin-18, a pro-inflammatory cytokine pivotal in the activation and proliferation of various immune cells. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology or other gene-editing techniques, these knockout cell lines provide researchers with a powerful tool to study the biological functions of IL18R1 and its involvement in immune regulation disorders, such as autoimmune diseases, infections, and cancer.

The functioning of IL18R1 knockout cell lines centers around their ability to allow scientists to observe the phenotypic changes that occur when the receptor is absent. Through comparative studies with wild-type cells, researchers can dissect signaling pathways associated with IL18R1, assess alterations in cytokine production, and evaluate the downstream immunological effects. This mechanism of action facilitates a deeper understanding of both basic biological processes and disease mechanisms, making these cell lines invaluable in translational research contexts.

The scientific importance of IL18R1 knockout cell lines extends into clinical settings where they can help in developing targeted therapies and personalized medicine approaches. Research utilizing these models has the potential to unveil therapeutic targets for conditions where IL18 signaling is dysregulated. Moreover, the unique ability to create cell lines that reflect specific mutations or deletions presents a distinctive advantage in drug development and testing, providing a platform for high-throughput screening of pharmaceutical compounds.

Advancements in cell line engineering have led to IL18R1 knockout cell lines that offer researchers incomparable specificity and reproducibility, enabling precise investigations into receptor functions that alternative models may not accurately provide. This high degree of accuracy results in more reliable data, expediting the translation of findings into clinical applications.

In summary, IL18R1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a significant advancement in the toolbox available to researchers and clinicians dedicated to understanding immune dynamics and developing new therapeutic strategies. Our company, with its rich expertise in biological product development, is committed to providing high-quality research tools, ensuring that your investigative work is supported by cutting-edge, scientifically validated products.
