Introduction
The CHO-K1-MCH2-Stable Cell Line is designed to stably express the MCH2 receptor. This cell line is valuable for investigating the signaling pathways activated by melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) through the MCH2 receptor.
Application
Drug screening and biological assays
Background
Melanin-concentrating hormone receptor 2 (MCH2), also known as G protein-coupled receptor 145 (GPR145), is a less well-characterized receptor for melanin-concentrating hormone, with potential roles in energy homeostasis and behavior.
