Introduction
The HEK293-MCH1-Stable Cell Line is engineered to stably express the MCH1 receptor. This cell line facilitates the study of melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) signaling pathways.
Application
Drug screening and biological assays
Background
Melanin-concentrating hormone receptor 1 (MCH1), also known as G protein-coupled receptor 24 (GPR24), is a receptor for melanin-concentrating hormone, a neuropeptide involved in the regulation of appetite, energy balance, and sleep.
