ABOUT

NF-κB–SEAP reporter HEK293 cells expressing human TLR2

HEK-Blue™-hTLR2 cells were obtained by co-transfection of the human TLR2 and SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) genes into HEK293 cells. The SEAP reporter gene is placed under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. Additionally, the CD14 co-receptor gene was transfected into these cells to enhance the TLR2 response. Stimulation with a TLR2 ligand activates NF-κB and AP-1 which induce the production of SEAP. Levels of SEAP can be easily determined with HEK-Blue™ Detection, a cell culture medium that allows for real-time detection of SEAP.

The parental cell line of HEK-Blue™ hTLR2 cells is HEK-Blue™ Null1 cells.
