Cellular neuroscience is the study of neurons at the cellular level, including cell morphology and physiological properties. It examines various types of neurons, the function of different neurons, and the interaction between neurons. There are over 8 billion neurons in the human brain, and they are diverse with respect to morphology and functions. The function of neurons is to receive, propagate and transmit electrochemical impulses. The study of neurons at the cellular level provides insight into how neurons carry out their function, the mechanism of signal transductions and the primary cause of neurological diseases.
GPCR Stable Cell Lines for Drug Discovery GPCRs are involved in a wide variety of physiological processes and diseases. The pharmaceutical industry uses GPCR stable cell lines in target discovery, target validation, assay development, and compound screening. They are also used in academia to evaluate the mechanisms of biological processes.
Genetically Encoded Calcium Indicators for Calcium Imaging In neurons, electrical activity is always accompanied by an influx of Ca2+ ions. Thus, calcium imaging can be used to visualize and decode the electrical activity in hundreds of neurons in cell culture or living animals, which has made it possible to dissect the function of neuronal circuits, as well as to investigate the roles that calcium ions have in functioning neurons.
Neural Cell Culture System Neuronal cultures are indispensable in the fields of neuroscience and pharmacology. The ability to produce in
vitro cultures of neuronal cells has been fundamental for advancing our understanding of the functions of the nervous system. We specialize in providing the highest quality media supplements, adhesion substrates, verification antibodies, and neuromodulators for neuronal cell culture research.
