Biochem/physiol Actions

AZ1729 is a short chain fatty acid receptor FFA2 (GPR43) regulator that acts as a direct allosteric agonist and as a positive allosteric modulator (PAM). AZ1729 selectively enhances Gi-mediated signaling (Gi-biased ligand), but not at those transduced by Gq/G11 pathway.

The short chain fatty acid receptor FFA2 is able to stimulate signaling via both Gi- and Gq/G11-promoted pathways. These pathways are believed to control distinct physiological end points but FFA2 receptor ligands appropriate to test this hypothesis have been lacking.

The non-activating allosteric modulator AZ1729, specific for free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFAR2), transfers the orthosteric FFAR2 agonists propionate and the P2Y2R specific agonist ATP into activating ligands that trigger an assembly of the neutrophil superoxide generating NADPH-oxidase. The homologous

Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2 is a GPCR activated by short chain fatty acids produced in high levels in the lower gut by microbial fermentation of non-digestible carbohydrates. A major challenge in studying this receptor is that the mouse ortholog
