These cyclic nucleotides play an important role as second messengers in diverse physiological functions. PDE7 is a cAMP-specific enzyme and two PDE genes (PDE7A and PDE7B) have been identified. PDE7 is widely expressed in various tissues, with PDE7A found primarily in skeletal muscle, T lymphocytes, and pancreas, while high levels of PDE7B are detected in brain, heart, and liver. Inhibition of PDE7 activity by its inhibitors leads to elevated intracellular level of cAMP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bhp-cat-pill\"\u003ePhosphodiesterase\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecombinant HEK293 cell line expressing rat PDE7A (phosphodiesterase 7A, accession number NM_031080). N-terminal FLAG-tagged rat PDE7A has been stably expressed in a human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cell line and its expression was confirmed by Western blotting. The regulation of intracellular level of cAMP by rat PDE7A in rat PDE7A stably-expressed HEK293 cells was characterized by a cell-based reporter assay using pCRE-luc reporter vector. pCRE-luc contains a luciferase gene that is under the control of the cAMP response element (CRE). When cells transiently transfected with pCRE-luc reporter were activated by forskolin, the level of cAMP was upregulated in parental HEK293 cells inducing the expression of luciferase reporter, whereas rat PDE7A-HEK293 cells showed reduction in the level of cAMP, resulting in lowered levels of luciferase expression. Inhibition of PDE7A activity by BRL 50481, a PDE7A inhibitor, restored the cAMP level, resulting in higher luciferase activity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"bhp-spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHost Cell Line\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHEK293\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHost Species\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHuman\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTransfection Method\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLipofectamine 2000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFormat\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAqueous solution containing DMSO\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSupplied As\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEach vial contains ~1 X 10^6 cells in 1 ml of 10% DMSO.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHarmonized Tariff Code\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3002-5900\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality Control \u0026amp; Validation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bhp-qc-badge\"\u003e✓ Mycoplasma-Tested\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cell line has been screened using the PCR-based Venor™GeM Mycoplasma Detection kit (Sigma Aldrich) to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsage Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee data sheet for detailed culturing and assay protocol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSafety \u0026amp; Handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-warning-box\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 4px\"\u003e⚠ Avoid freeze\/thaw cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRegulatory Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-regulatory-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-reg-item\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLicense Required\u003c\/strong\u003eYes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-reg-item\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLiving Modified Organism\u003c\/strong\u003eYes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLicense Disclosure\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-license-box\"\u003ePurchase of this cell line grants you with a 10-year license to use this cell line in your immediate laboratory, for research use only.
