      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, resuspends them in media, and allows them to recover for 24 hours. The following day the cells are counted, plated, and assayed for calcium response.

      Urotensin II, a cyclic 11-13 residue peptide expressed in motoneurons of the spinal cord, acts as a potent vasoconstrictor (Coulouarn et al., 1998; Ames et al., 1999). The effects of urotensin II are mediated by binding to a GPCR, GPR14, which is expressed in endothelium, smooth muscle, heart and pancreas (Ames et al., 1999). Genetic deletion of GPR14 in mice renders aortae refractile to the contractile activity of urotensin II without changing baseline hemodynamics (Behm et al., 2003). Pharmacological inhibition of urotensin II/GPR14 interactions prevents renal insufficiency following renal artery ligation (Clozel et al., 2004). Thus, GPR14 is an attractive target for a number of cardiovascular diseases. Millipore’s cloned human GPR14-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-2 suspension cell line host, which supports high levels of recombinant GPR14 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 GPR14.
