A FFAR1 full agonist restores islet function in models of impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and diabetic non-human primates
The free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1/GPR40) mediates fatty acid-induced insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. At least 3 distinct binding sites exist on the FFAR1 receptor and numerous synthetic ligands have been investigated for their anti-diabetic actions. Fasiglifam, binds to site-1 and sti...
