Gene Information

Cat. No. CSC-RG0819
Background Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a neuropeptide which is widely distributed in the mammalian central nervous system. Two CCK receptors have been identified to mediate the effects of CCK/gastrin family: CCKA (or CCK-1) receptor and CCKB (or CCK-2 or gastrin receptor). The CCKA receptor has a more limited distribution with highest densities in the hypothalamic nuclei, areas of the hippocampus, the septum, dorsal motor vagal nucleus and interpeduncular nucleus of the brain stem. It also occurs in numerous gastro-intestinal tissues. CCKA receptors affect satiety, pancreatitis, gut motility and have growth-promoting effects on some tumors.

Safety Considerations The following safety precautions should be observed.
1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum.
2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line.
3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab.
4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells.
5. All waste should be considered hazardous.
6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach.
