DescriptionReady-to-Assay™ β3 Adrenergic 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.

The beta adrenergic receptors mediate the effects of endogenous catecholamines, such as epinephrine, by coupling to Gs to stimulate cAMP. Whereas β1 and β2 are found predominantly in heart, the β3 receptor is found primarily in adipose tissue. Activation of adipose β3 results in lipolysis and thermogenesis. A polymorphism in the human gene for β3 is associated with weight gain in obese patients (Clement et al., 1995). In addition, mice lacking the β3-adrenoceptor display increased total body fat, particularly on a high fat diet (Revelli et al., 1997). These observations indicate that β3 is a possible target for obesity treatments. Millipore’s cloned human β3-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-10 host, which supports high levels of recombinant β3 expression on the cell surface and contains optimized levels of a recombinant promiscuous G protein to couple the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for agonists, antagonists, and modulators at β3.
