Product Overview:
Full-length human CXCR1 cDNA
Background Information:
CXCR1 (also known as IL-8RA) is a Gi/o-coupled GPCR expressed on neutrophils, CD8(+) T cells, and intestinal epithelial cells (Murphy, 1997; Sturm et al., 2005; Takata et al., 2004). CXCR1 binds with high affinity to the chemokine interleukin-8 (IL-8) and much lower affinity to GROα, whereas a related receptor, CXCR2, binds with equal affinity to IL-8 and GROα (Hall et al., 1999). CXCR1 has been proposed to be the primary regulator of neutrophil response to IL-8 in sepsis (Cummings et al., 1999). Antagonists of CXCR1 and CXCR2 have been developed and display efficacy in animal models of reperfusion injury (Bertini, et al., 2004; Kaneider et al., 2005). Chemicon's cloned human CXCR1-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-1 host, which supports high levels of recombinant CXCR1 expression on the cell surface and contains high levels of the promiscuous G protein Gα15 to couple the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for antagonists of interactions between CXCR1 and its ligands.

Entrez Gene Summary:
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the G-protein-coupled receptor family. This protein is a receptor for interleukin 8 (IL8). It binds to IL8 with high affinity, and transduces the signal through a G-protein activated second messenger system. Knockout studies in mice suggested that this protein inhibits embryonic oligodendrocyte precursor migration in developing spinal cord. This gene, IL8RB, a gene encoding another high affinity IL8 receptor, as well as IL8RBP, a pseudogene of IL8RB, form a gene cluster in a region mapped to chromosome 2q33-q36.
UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P25024 # Receptor to interleukin-8, which is a powerful neutrophils chemotactic factor. Binding of IL-8 to the receptor causes activation of neutrophils. This response is mediated via a G-protein that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. This receptor binds to IL-8 with a high affinity and to MGSA (GRO) with a low affinity.

Storage Conditions:
1. Immediately upon receipt, thaw cells or place cells in liquid nitrogen. Maintain frozen in liquid nitrogen for up to 5 years.
2. Thaw cells rapidly by removing from liquid nitrogen and immediately immersing in a 37ºC water bath. Immediately after ice has thawed, sterilize the exterior of the vial with 70% ethanol. Transfer contents of the vial to a T75 flask containing growth media. Place the flask in a humidified incubator at 37ºC with 5% CO2.
3. After 8-24 h, all live cells will be attached. Viability of the cells is expected to be 50-80%. At this time, replace media to remove residual DMSO, and return to incubator.
4. When cells are approximately 80% confluent, passage the cells as follows: Remove media and wash once with HBSS without Ca++ and Mg++ (10 mL/T75). Add 0.05% trypsin/0.2 g/L EDTA (1 mL/T75) and place in humidified incubator at 37ºC with 5% CO2 until cells begin to round up and detach (5-10 minutes). Gently rap the side of the flask to dislodge the cells. Neutralize trypsin by addition of 4 mL Chem-1 Growth Media per 1 mL trypsin.
5. Cells are typically passaged 1:10 every 3-4 days. Passaging ratio may be varied according to requirements of the investigator.
6. Frozen stocks of cells should be prepared at the earliest passage possible after thawing, as follows: Count detached cells (prepared as in Step 4). Centrifuge cells at 200 x g for 5 min. Resuspend cells at 5 x 106 cells/mL in Chem-1 Freezing Media (cell densities of 2-10 x 106 are also acceptable if necessary). Dispense 1 mL aliquots into cryopreservation vials. Freeze the cells by a controlled rate process, such as in an isopropanol-jacketed container placed at –70°C overnight. Store the vials in liquid nitrogen.
7. Use of cells immediately after thawing is feasible for some cell lines and is being further validated. Some cell lines may need to be passaged at least once after thawing prior to use in calcium flux assays. Cells should be resuspended in Chem-1 Plating Media for plating for calcium assay.
