Gene Information

Cat. No. CSC-RG0774
Background Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) exerts its many physiological effects through 13 distinct receptor subtypes in humans. These subtypes fall into seven structurally-defined classes (5HT1 to 5HT7). 5-HT6 receptor is expressed in several human brain regions, most prominently in the caudate nucleus. It is positively coupled to adenylcyclase and has pharmacological properties with high affinity for several therapeutically important antidepressant and antipsychotic drugs, in particular the atypical antipsychotic clozapine and related compounds.

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.
