Applications

One of the numerous binding sites for serotonin is the HTR2C receptor. The brain's short-term receptor potential calcium channels, which are activated by HTR2C, may control neuronal activity. This, in turn, controls the activation of proopiomelanocortin neurons and the release of CRH, which in turn controls the release of corticosterone. HTR2C is thought to have a crucial role in controlling mood, anxiety, feeding, and sexual behavior. In some parts of the brain, activation of HTR2C may prevent the release of dopamine and norepinephrine. HTR2C also contributes to glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity. Several research have suggested that the prefrontal cortex of certain suicide victims contains an abnormally high number of HTR2C receptors. The customized HTR2C stable cell line can be used in antibody discovery and development, potential drug candidate screening and signaling pathway researches.
