Gene: NR3C1
Official Full Name: nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes glucocorticoid receptor, which can function both as a transcription factor that binds to glucocorticoid response elements in the promoters of glucocorticoid responsive genes to activate their transcription, and as a regulator of other transcription factors. This receptor is typically found in the cytoplasm, but upon ligand binding, is transported into the nucleus. It is involved in inflammatory responses, cellular proliferation, and differentiation in target tissues. Mutations in this gene are associated with generalized glucocorticoid resistance. Alternative splicing of this gene results in transcript variants encoding either the same or different isoforms. Additional isoforms resulting from the use of alternate in-frame translation initiation sites have also been described, and shown to be functional, displaying diverse cytoplasm-to-nucleus trafficking patterns and distinct transcriptional activities (PMID:15866175).

NR3C1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are a specialized tool designed to facilitate the study of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) pathway by enabling the investigation of gene function and regulation. These cell lines have undergone precise genetic modification to disable the NR3C1 gene, which encodes for the GR. This knockout allows researchers to examine cellular responses in the absence of glucocorticoid signaling, crucial for understanding the receptor's role in various physiological and pathological processes, including stress, inflammation, and immune response.
The key function of NR3C1 gene knockout cell lines lies in their ability to mimic conditions of GR deficiency, thereby providing a clearer insight into the molecular mechanisms that regulate gene expression and cellular activities influenced by glucocorticoids. By using these knockout cell lines, researchers can elucidate the receptor's impact on various signal transduction pathways, making it a powerful tool for pharmacological studies and drug development.
In scientific research and clinical settings, these cell lines hold immense importance in advancing our understanding of diseases associated with GR dysfunction, such as autoimmune disorders, metabolic syndromes, and certain cancers. They also facilitate the evaluation of novel therapeutic compounds aimed at modulating the GR pathway, which can lead to more targeted and effective treatments.
What sets the NR3C1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternatives is their precise genetic editing and consistent performance, ensuring reproducibility of results. These lines are derived from well-characterized parent cell types, providing a reliable platform while minimizing off-target effects commonly seen in other methods. The extensive data on their expression profiles and functional assays allows for immediate application in research without the need for extensive validation.
For researchers and clinicians looking to deepen their understanding of glucocorticoid signaling or develop novel therapeutic strategies, NR3C1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines present an unparalleled opportunity. Our company has a long-standing commitment to providing high-quality biological products, backed by rigorous scientific validation and support. We strive to empower researchers with the tools they need to make significant discoveries in their fields.
