The Human TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 2) gene encodes a cell surface receptor that is predominantly expressed on microglia, the resident immune cells of the brain. TREM2 plays a crucial role in the clearance of cellular debris, including amyloid-beta plaques, which are associated with Alzheimer's disease. Mutations in TREM2 have been linked to an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. The TYROBP (TYRO protein tyrosine kinase binding protein) gene is a ligand for TREM2 and is involved in the activation of downstream signaling pathways that regulate microglial function. The stable cell line expressing TREM2 and TYROBP in HEK293T cells provides a model for studying the interaction between these proteins and their role in immune surveillance and neuroinflammation. This cell line is valuable for investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying TREM2 signaling and for the development of therapeutic strategies targeting TREM2 in neurological diseases.
The Human TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line - HEK293T is a genetically engineered cell line that stably expresses both TREM2 and TYROBP genes. TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 2) and its signaling adapter TYROBP (TYRO protein tyrosine kinase binding protein) play crucial roles in the immune system, particularly in the function of microglia, the resident immune cells of the brain. (1)Alzheimer's Disease Research: This cell line is instrumental in researching the mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease, where TREM2 and TYROBP have been implicated in the clearance of amyloid-beta plaques, a hallmark of the disease. By utilizing this cell line, researchers can investigate how alterations in TREM2 and TYROBP signaling affect microglial function and contribute to the progression of Alzheimer's disease. (2)Immunotherapy Development: The TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line can be used to screen for potential immunotherapeutic agents that target TREM2 signaling pathways. This could lead to the development of new treatments for neurodegenerative diseases by modulating the immune response within the central nervous system. (3)Inflammatory Response Studies: Given the role of TREM2 and TYROBP in modulating inflammatory responses, this cell line can be employed to study the inflammatory processes in various neurological conditions, such as multiple sclerosis and traumatic brain injury. Understanding these mechanisms can pave the way for anti-inflammatory therapeutic strategies.
Customer Q&As
What experimental models are most effectively employed to demonstrate the physiological relevance of the Human TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line - HEK293T in neuroinflammatory processes?

A: To demonstrate the physiological relevance of the Human TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line - HEK293T in neuroinflammatory processes, researchers can utilize in vitro co-culture systems with microglia and neuronal cells to observe the interactions and effects of TREM2-TYROBP signaling on neuroinflammation. Additionally, creating a brain-on-a-chip model that incorporates the cell line could provide insights into the cell signaling dynamics under conditions mimicking the brain microenvironment. These models can help elucidate the role of TREM2-TYROBP in microglial activation and its potential impact on neurodegenerative diseases.

Considering the Human TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line - HEK293T, how does the overexpression of TREM2 and TYROBP affect amyloid-beta phagocytosis in vitro, and what implications does this have for Alzheimer's disease research?

A: The overexpression of TREM2 and TYROBP in the Human TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line - HEK293T enhances the cell's capacity for amyloid-beta phagocytosis in vitro, mimicking a key function of microglia in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. This effect could facilitate the identification of potential therapeutic targets or compounds that modulate TREM2-TYROBP signaling, aiming to boost amyloid-beta clearance. Such findings have profound implications for Alzheimer's research, offering a pathway to developing treatments that might slow or reverse the progression of the disease by enhancing the natural defense mechanisms of the brain.

Can the Human TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line - HEK293T be utilized to screen for molecules that modulate the TREM2-TYROBP signaling pathway, and what assay designs would be optimal for this application?

A: Yes, the Human TREM2-TYROBP Stable Cell Line - HEK293T is an excellent tool for screening molecules that modulate the TREM2-TYROBP signaling pathway. Optimal assay designs for this application include the use of reporter gene assays, where activation or inhibition of the TREM2-TYROBP pathway can be quantitatively measured via luciferase or GFP under the control of NF-κB or AP-1 promoters, which are downstream of TYROBP. Such assays can efficiently identify small molecules or antibodies that influence this signaling pathway, thereby contributing to the development of novel therapeutics for diseases associated with altered microglial function.

What are the key technical considerations for ensuring the successful transfection and stable expression of TREM2 and TYROBP in the HEK293T cell line, and how do these factors impact the cell line's use in research?

A: Ensuring the successful transfection and stable expression of TREM2 and TYROBP in the HEK293T cell line involves optimizing transfection conditions, including the choice of transfection reagent, DNA concentration, and cell density. Selecting a suitable antibiotic for selection and maintaining cells under selection pressure for an adequate period are crucial to achieve stable expression. Regular verification of gene expression through qPCR or Western blot is necessary to confirm the stability of the expression over time. These technical considerations are vital for maintaining the cell line's reliability and reproducibility in research, especially when studying the biological functions of TREM2 and TYROBP in neurodegeneration and immune response.
