TAK-875

The free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1, GPR40) is highly expressed in pancreatic beta-cells and activated by medium and long-chain fatty acids. There is evidence of a link between FFAR1 (GPR40) and the ability of fatty acids to amplify glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, making this signaling pathway a potential target for regulating diabetes, obesity, and other metabolic disorders. TAK-875 is a selective FFAR1 (GPR40) agonist (EC50 = 26 nM) that does not exhibit activity on the related FFARs FFAR2 (GPR43) or FFAR3 (GPR41).Formal Name: (3S)-6-[[2',6'-dimethyl-4'-[3-(methylsulfonyl)propoxy][1,1'-biphenyl]-3-yl]methoxy]-2,3-dihydro-3-benzofuranacetic acid.
