Cat. No. CSC-RI0102
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human HCN4.
Background The human HCN4 gene encodes the pore-forming subunit of a hyperpolarization-activated, cyclic nucleotide-modulated cation channel. HCN4 channels are the predominant HCN isoform in the sinoatrial node and contribute to pacemaker current that controls rhythmic activity in the heart and brain. The HCN4 therapeutic potential includes treatment of cardiac arrhythmia and ischemic heart disease.
Target Gene HCN4
Gene Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Abbr HEK293-HuHCN4
Alias HCN4, SSS2
Host Cell HEK293
Host Cell Species Homo sapiens (Human)

Customer Reviews

Customer Q&As
How was the Human HCN4 Stable Cell Line-HEK293 established?

A: The cell line was established by stably transfecting the human HCN4 (hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated channel 4) gene into HEK293 cells.

What specific applications does the Human HCN4 Stable Cell Line-HEK293 have in cardiac physiology research?

A: It is primarily used to study the role of HCN4 in cardiac rhythm regulation and arrhythmias.

What are the applications of the Human HCN4 Stable Cell Line-HEK293 in neuroscience research?

A: It can be used to study the role of HCN4 in neural signal transduction and the regulation of neuronal excitability.

What are the advantages of using the Human HCN4 Stable Cell Line-HEK293 in drug screening?

A: This cell line is suitable for screening drugs that affect HCN4 channel activity, important for developing new treatments for cardiac diseases and neurological disorders.

What are the specific requirements for the storage and maintenance of the Human HCN4 Stable Cell Line-HEK293?

A: The cells need to be stored in low-temperature conditions (typically in a liquid nitrogen tank at -196°C) and regularly resuscitated to maintain their biological activity and genetic stability.

How can the stability and consistency of the Human HCN4 Stable Cell Line-HEK293 be ensured during long-term culture?

A: Avoid overgrowth and cross-contamination of cells, and regularly perform phenotypic and genotypic testing.
