Examining the FP receptor-triggered CREB activation in cell-based assays
Scientific posters
The PGF2α receptor (FP) was initially characterized as a Gq-coupled receptor, which leads to an increase in inositol triphosphate/diacylglycerol, intracellular calcium mobilization, and protein kinase C (PKC) activation. Interestingly, PGF2α has also been suggested to induce CREB- regulated genes in human amniotic fibroblasts and tracheobronchial epithelial cells through PKC activity. The activation of CREB by the FP receptor has been reproduced in this study by co-transfecting the FP receptor with a CRE-SEAP reporter into HEK293T cells using reverse transfection.
