描述(Description)
The Human GCGR (Luc) HEK293 Reporter Cell was engineered to not only express CREB signaling response element, but also express the receptor full length human GCGR (Gene ID: 2642), which can drive luciferase expressing systems by GCGR agonists or Glucagon stimulation. In the absence of agonist or Glucagon, the GCGR receptor is not activated and luminescence signal is low. In the presence of agonist or Glucagon, the GCGR pathway-activated luminescence can be detected in a dose-dependent manner.
应用说明(Application)
• Screen for agonists that can bind and activate GCGR.

Receptor Assay
Expression analysis of human GCGR on Human GCGR (Luc) HEK293 Reporter Cell by FACS.
Cell surface staining was performed on Human GCGR (Luc) HEK293 Reporter Cell or negative control cell using Alexa Fluor® 488-labeled anti-human GCGR antibody.
Protocol
Application
Bioactivity analysis of human GCGR agonist (RLU).
This reporter cell was incubated with serial dilutions of Retatrutide (a triple agonist peptide of GCGR, GIPR and GLP-1R). The EC50 of Retatrutide was approximately 0.024 nM.
Protocol
Bioactivity analysis of human GCGR agonist (FOLD).
This reporter cell was incubated with serial dilutions of Retatrutide (a triple agonist peptide of GCGR, GIPR and GLP-1R). The max induction fold was approximately 79.93.
Protocol
Passage Stability
Passage stability analysis by Signaling Bioassay.
The continuously growing Human GCGR (Luc) HEK293 Reporter Cell was stimulated with serial dilutions of Retatrutide (a triple agonist peptide of GCGR, GIPR and GLP-1R). Retatrutide stimulated response demonstrates passage stabilization (fold induction and EC50) across passage 7-20.

背景(Background)
G-protein coupled receptor for glucagon that plays a central role in the regulation of blood glucose levels and glucose homeostasis. Regulates the rate of hepatic glucose production by promoting glycogen hydrolysis and gluconeogenesis. Plays an important role in mediating the responses to fasting. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase. Promotes activation of adenylate cyclase. Besides, plays a role in signaling via a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system.
