P2RY2 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: P2RY2

Official Full Name: purinergic receptor P2Y2provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The product of this gene belongs to the family of P2 receptors, which is activated by extracellular nucleotides and subdivided into P2X ligand-gated ion channels and P2Y G-protein coupled receptors. This family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This receptor, found on many cell types, is activated by ATP and UTP and is reported to be overexpressed on some cancer cell types. It is involved in many cellular functions, such as proliferation, apoptosis and inflammation. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.

Background

P2RY2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell lines characterized by the intentional deletion of the P2RY2 gene, which encodes for the purinergic receptor P2Y2. This receptor is pivotal in various physiological processes, including airway epithelial function, immune responses, and cellular signaling pathways. By creating knockout models, researchers can elucidate the distinct roles of P2RY2 in cell signaling and its involvement in pathological conditions such as cancer, inflammation, and pulmonary diseases.

The mechanism of action of these knockout cell lines operates through the absence of the P2Y2 receptor, allowing for a controlled study of cellular responses without the confounding effects of P2Y2 receptor activation. By analyzing these cell lines, scientists can pinpoint the receptor's regulatory function in key biological processes, including cytoskeletal rearrangement, apoptosis, and transmembrane ion flow. This understanding is critical in both therapeutic development and fundamental biology.

The scientific importance of P2RY2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines stems from their ability to serve as robust models in pharmacological research and drug discovery. By employing these knockout models, researchers can assess the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of potential therapeutics targeting P2Y2 pathways. In clinical settings, these cell lines contribute to personalized medicine strategies by allowing closer examination of receptor-dependent responses to drug treatments.

Compared to conventional wild-type cell lines, our P2RY2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines provide unique advantages in specificity and reproducibility in research outcomes. The precise genetic modification enables focused studies on P2Y2-related signaling mechanisms without background interference, thereby providing clearer insights into receptor function.

For researchers and clinicians engaged in the study of cellular signaling or the development of new therapeutics, the P2RY2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent invaluable tools that facilitate deeper understanding and promote innovative findings. At our company, we pride ourselves on our cutting-edge genetic engineering capabilities and commitment to delivering high-quality biological products, ensuring our clients have the necessary tools to advance their research and clinical endeavors.
