TAK875 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

The free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1; GPR40) is highly expressed in pancreatic β-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).

Uses

TAK-876 is a selective G protein-coupled receptor 40 (GPR40) agonist (1,2). TAK-876 is a novel oral medication that has been developed to improve the secretion of insulin in a glucose-dependent manner, which has the potential to improve the control of blood sugar levels with a low risk of hypoglycemia.

Definition

ChEBI: Fasiglifam is a member of biphenyls.

in vitro

tak-875 exhibited potent agonist activity and high binding affinity to the human receptor. in addition, tak-875 showed excellent agonist potency selectivity for gpr40 receptor over other members of the ffa receptor family (for which ec50>10 μm) [1].

in vivo

tak-875 showed potent plasma glucose-lowering action and insulinotropic action during an oral glucose tolerance test in female wistar fatty rats with impaired glucose tolerance [2].
