DescriptionReady-to-Assay™ CCK1 Cholesystokinin 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.

Cholecystokinins are a series of peptides of heterogeneous length (5 to 58 amino acids) that are derived from preprocholecystokinin and are found in gastrointestinal tissues and the central nervous system. Gastrin is a related peptide with 5 C-terminal amino acids identical to those of cholecystokinin. Two GPCRs, CCK1 (CCKA) and CCK2 (CCKB), bind to CCK and/or gastrin to mediate the biological effects of the peptides. CCK1 selectively binds sulfated CCK, whereas CCK2 binds to CCK and gastrin with similar affinity. Binding of ligands to CCK1 stimulates mobilization of intracellular calcium by activation of Gq/11. CCK1 receptors in the periphery are primarily localized in the pancreas, gallbladder, pylorus, and intestine where they are responsible of the regulation of diverse digestive processes. They are also present in select areas of the peripheral nervous system (vagus nerve), and the CNS where they mediate the satiety effects of CCK, regulate an increase in dopamine release, and antagonize opiod analgesia (Noble et al., 1999). Millipore’s cloned human CCK1-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-1 host, which supports high levels of recombinant CCK1 expression on the cell surface for functional detection via the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for agonists, antagonists, and modulators at CCK1.
