Reconstitution

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%.

Supplementary information

5-HT-2B also known as serotonin receptor 2B is a G-protein-coupled receptor that binds to serotonin. This protein with a molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa is located on the cell surface and exhibits a wide expression in tissues such as the heart lung liver and gastrointestinal tract. It contains several functional domains contributing to its activity mediating cellular responses through signaling cascades when serotonin binds to it.
Biological function summary

5-HT-2B plays a role in modulating the contractility and remodeling of cardiac tissue influencing vascular function and smooth muscle behavior impacting gastrointestinal motility and contributing to liver regeneration. It is not part of a large multiprotein complex but interacts with other cellular components to exert its biological functions. The receptor's activation leads to various intracellular responses influencing different physiological effects depending on the tissue context.

Pathways

Serotonin receptor 2B is involved in the serotonin signaling pathway and the calcium signaling pathway. These pathways impact several physiological processes including mood regulation and cardiovascular function. The receptor interacts with proteins such as phospholipase C which mediates the hydrolysis of phospholipids in the membrane releasing inositol trisphosphate and causing a rise in intracellular calcium levels important for function continuation.

Abnormalities in 5-HT-2B have been linked to cardiac valvulopathy and pulmonary hypertension. These conditions highlight the importance of its role in vascular and cardiac function. The receptor's dysregulation interacts with proteins such as endothelin-1 in vascular abnormalities and contributes to disease progression highlighting its potential as a target for therapeutic interventions in these disorders.

Function

G-protein coupled receptor for 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) (PubMed : 18703043, PubMed : 23519210, PubMed : 7926008, PubMed : 8078486, PubMed : 8143856, PubMed : 8882600). Also functions as a receptor for various ergot alkaloid derivatives and psychoactive substances (PubMed : 12970106, PubMed : 18703043, PubMed : 23519210, PubMed : 23519215, PubMed : 24357322, PubMed : 28129538, PubMed : 30127358, PubMed : 36087581, PubMed : 7926008, PubMed : 8078486, PubMed : 8143856). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors (PubMed : 23519215, PubMed : 28129538, PubMed : 8078486, PubMed : 8143856, PubMed : 8882600). HTR2B is coupled to G(q)/G(11) G alpha proteins and activates phospholipase C-beta, releasing diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) second messengers that modulate the activity of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and promote the release of Ca(2+) ions from intracellular stores, respectively (PubMed : 18703043, PubMed : 23519215, PubMed : 28129538, PubMed : 30127358, PubMed : 36087581, PubMed : 8078486, PubMed : 8143856, PubMed : 8882600). Beta-arrestin family members inhibit signaling via G proteins and mediate activation of alternative signaling pathways (PubMed : 23519215, PubMed : 28129538, PubMed : 30127358, PubMed : 36087581). Plays a role in the regulation of dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine release, 5-hydroxytryptamine uptake and in the regulation of extracellular dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine levels, and thereby affects neural activity. May play a role in the perception of pain (By similarity). Plays a role in the regulation of behavior, including impulsive behavior (PubMed : 21179162). Required for normal proliferation of embryonic cardiac myocytes and normal heart development (By similarity). Protects cardiomyocytes against apoptosis (By similarity). Plays a role in the adaptation of pulmonary arteries to chronic hypoxia (By similarity). Plays a role in vasoconstriction (By similarity). Required for normal osteoblast function and proliferation, and for maintaining normal bone density (By similarity). Required for normal proliferation of the interstitial cells of Cajal in the intestine (By similarity).
