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.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\n5-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.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nSerotonin 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.\u003cbr\u003e\nAbnormalities 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46852273635497,"sku":"ab194333","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab194333","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
