Product Description | Recombinant CHO-K1 cells stably overexpress human C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 5 (CXCR5) on the surface and contain high levels of G protein Gαi to couple with the receptor in downstream signaling pathways. |
Culture Properties | Adherent |
Stability | Stable through more than 16 passages with no significant changes in assay performance or expression profile. |
Size | Two vials of frozen cells (>1×106 per vial in 1 mL) |
Storage | Store cells in liquid nitrogen immediately upon receipt. Thaw and recover cells within one year from the date received. |
Culture Medium | Ham’s F-12K (Kaighn’s), 10% FBS, 3 μg/ml puromycin (Cat. No. A11138-03, Life Technologies), 100 μg/ml Hygromycin B (Cat. No. 10687010, Life Technologies) |
Complete Growth Medium | Ham’s F-12K (Kaighn’s), 10% FBS |
Freeze Medium-DATA | 45% Ham’s F-12K (Kaighn’s) (Cat. No. 21127, Life Technologies), 45% FBS (Cat. No. 10099-141, Life Technologies), 10% DMSO (Cat. No. D2650, Sigma) |
Figure 1. BCA-1-induced concentration-dependent stimulation of intracellular calcium mobilization in CHO-K1/Gα15/CXCR5 cells. The cells were loaded with Calcium-4 (Cat. No. R8142; Molecular Devices) prior to stimulation with CXCR5 agonist, BCA-1 (Cat No.: Z02826, GenScript). The intracellular calcium change was measured by FLIPRTETRA. The relative fluorescent units (RFU) were recorded and normalized to plot against the log of the cumulative doses of BCA-1 (mean ± SEM, n = 3). The EC50 of BCA-1 on CHO-K1/Gα15/CXCR5 cells was 0.11 μM.
