Cat. No. CSC-RG0411
Background The urotensin 2 receptor (UT or GPR14) is high affinity receptor for urotensin-2 and urotensin-2B. In human, Urotensin II is the most potent vasoconstrictor known, possibly contributing to several human cardiovascular diseases. Both UT receptor and urotensin II are widely expressed in many other tissues, implicating urotensin II in the pathogenesis of a variety of disease processes ranging from hypertension to hepatic cirrhosis and UT antagonists for the possibility of a new range of therapeutic drugs.

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.
