DescriptionReady-to-Assay™ CALCRL Calcitonin 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 calcitonin family of peptides, which includes calcitonin, two calcitonin-related gene peptides (CGRPs), adrenomedullin, and amylin, share a disulfide-bonded loop, an amphipathic a-helix, and an amidated C-terminus. The peptides influence a variety of physiological effects, including vascular tone, food intake and bone metabolism. The biological effects of the peptides are mediated by two class B GPCRs, CT receptor (calcitonin receptor) and CL receptor (calcitonin receptor-like receptor) (Poyner et al., 2002). The pharmacology of the CT and CL receptors is strongly influenced by their association with a family of three receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMPs), which are 14-17 kD single pass transmembrane proteins. CGRP (calcitonin gene-related peptide) induces vasodilation, and its activity is primarily mediated by CGRP1, composed of CL in complex with RAMP1 (Hasbak et al., 2003). As a consequence of its role as a vasodilator, CGRP acting via CGRP1 appears to play an important role in hypertension (Deng and Li, 2005). Millipore’s cloned human CALCRL -expressing cell line is made in the Chem-1 host, which supports high levels of recombinant CALCRL 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 agonists, antagonists, and modulators at CALCRL.
