Product Description
MT1 (Melatonin Receptor 1A, MTNR1A) is one of the two primary high-affinity G protein-coupled receptors for melatonin. It is predominantly distributed in the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the brain, retina, pituitary gland, and gonadal tissues. Its core function is to mediate the rhythmic signals of melatonin, acting as a critical "circadian coordinator." By inhibiting cAMP production via Gi/o protein signaling, it regulates circadian rhythms, sleep-wake cycles, and participates in seasonal reproduction, thermoregulation, and immune function modulation. The diurnal fluctuation of its expression and activity forms the molecular foundation linking environmental light-dark cycles to intrinsic physiological functions.
Screeningbio’s CHO-K1/Rat MT1 cell line overexpress Rat MTNR1A and is designed to detect inhibition in intracellular cAMP levels in response to agonist stimulation of the receptor. Cisbio HTRF cAMP kit can be used to detect the signal.
