Safety and Packaging

Cat. No. CSC-RI0047
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human SCN1A.
Background The voltage gated sodium channel isoform Nav1.1 is involved with axon potential initiation and repetitive neuronal firing as well as the contraction-excitation coupling of cardiac myocytes. Nav1.1 is the target of antiepileptic drugs and the probable target causing side effects of centrally active local anaesthetics. It is detected cardiac myocytes as well as in the cell bodies of central neurons.
Gene SCN1A

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.

Q & A

Customer Reviews

Customer Q&As
How was the Human SCN1A Stable Cell Line-HEK293 established?

A: The cell line was established by stably transfecting the human SCN1A gene (sodium channel subunit alpha 1A) into HEK293 cells.

What are the specific advantages of using the Human SCN1A Stable Cell Line-HEK293 in epilepsy research?

A: As SCN1A gene mutations are closely related to certain types of epilepsy, using this cell line can help researchers understand the molecular mechanisms of epilepsy more deeply.

What factors should be considered when conducting drug testing with the Human SCN1A Stable Cell Line-HEK293?

A: Special attention should be paid to the impact of drugs on SCN1A channel activity and the resulting changes in the cell's electrophysiological properties.

What are the applications of the Human SCN1A Stable Cell Line-HEK293 in cardiology research?

A: Although SCN1A is mainly associated with neurological diseases, it can also be used to study the function of sodium channels in cardiac pathologies.

What are the potential uses of the Human SCN1A Stable Cell Line-HEK293 in neuropharmacological research?

A: It can be used to assess the potential impact of drugs on SCN1A channels in the nervous system, especially in the treatment of epilepsy and other neurological disorders.

What special experimental designs should be considered when using the Human SCN1A Stable Cell Line-HEK293 in neuroscience experiments?

A: Consideration should be given to how to simulate the in vivo environment, such as using appropriate ion concentrations and electrophysiological techniques, to accurately assess the function of the SCN1A channel.
