DescriptionReady-to-Assay™ V2 Vasopressin Receptor Frozen Cells
Background InformationMillipore’s Ready-to-Assay GPCR frozen cells are designed for simple, rapid calcium assays with no requirement for intensive cell culturing. Millipore has optimized the freezing conditions to provide cells with high viability and functionality post-thaw. The user simply thaws the cells and resuspends them in media, dispenses cell suspension into assay plates and, following over night recovery, assays for calcium response.

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a 9 amino acid peptide that functions as an antidiuretic, vasoconstrictor and neurotransmitter. The three vasopressin receptors, V1A, V1B and V2, are GPCRs; V1A and V1B couple to Gq and calcium release, whereas V2 couples to Gs. V2 expressed in renal collecting ducts plays an important role in regulating renal free water excretion (Birnbaumer, 2000). Mutations in V2 result in X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, a syndrome in which the kidney is unable to concentrate urine, leading to dehydration and hypernatremia (Birnbaumer, 2001). Conversely, elevated levels of AVP lead to hyponatremia in the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH), congestive heart failure or cirrhosis, and V2 selective antagonists have been developed to treat these conditions (Verbalis, 2002). Chemicon’s cloned human V2-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-1 host, which supports high levels of recombinant V2 expression on the cell surface and contains high levels of the promiscuous G protein Gα15 to couple the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for antagonists of interactions between V2 and its ligands.
