Gene: NTSR1
Official Full Name: neurotensin receptor 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Neurotensin receptor 1 belongs to the large superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors. NTSR1 mediates the multiple functions of neurotensin, such as hypotension, hyperglycemia, hypothermia, antinociception, and regulation of intestinal motility and secretion.

NTSR1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models designed to study the function of the neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1) gene, which plays a pivotal role in various neurological and physiological processes. These cell lines are engineered using CRISPR/Cas9 technology to create a knockout of the NTSR1 gene, effectively silencing its expression and allowing researchers to investigate the downstream effects of this receptor's absence on cellular behavior and signaling pathways.
The primary function of NTSR1 involves mediating the effects of neurotensin, a neuropeptide that has diverse roles, including modulation of pain, regulation of body temperature, and influence on various neurotransmitter systems. By utilizing NTSR1 knockout cell lines, researchers can gain critical insights into the signaling cascades activated by neurotensin and how their disruption may contribute to pathologies such as cancer, psychiatric disorders, and metabolic diseases.
Scientifically, these cell lines are invaluable in both research and clinical settings, enabling in-depth analyses of receptor pharmacology, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic interventions. Their application spans drug discovery, biomarker identification, and the development of novel treatments targeting neurotensin-mediated pathways.
Compared to traditional cell lines, NTSR1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer unique advantages, including enhanced specificity in elucidating NTSR1-related functions and improved reproducibility in experimental outcomes. This leads to more reliable and robust data collection, which is crucial for advancing our understanding of neurotensin's role in health and disease.
For researchers and clinicians alike, the value of these cell lines lies in their ability to facilitate cutting-edge research, ultimately driving innovation in therapeutic strategies. They allow for a more nuanced understanding of complex biological processes, leading to more informed decision-making in clinical contexts.
