Description

General description

A cell-permeable aminophenylpropanoate that acts as a potent and selective agonist for the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) GPR40 (EC₅₀ ~50 nM) with much reduced activity towards family members GPR120 (EC₅₀ ~3.5 µM), GPR41/GPR43 (EC₅₀ >50 µM), as well as a panel of eight other fatty acid and prostaglandin receptors. Shown to induces GPR40-dependent Ca²⁺ mobilization in HEK-293 cells and potentiate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in MIN6 cells. Reported to exhibit an in vivo half-life of ≥5.3 hr. in rat (p.o. or i.v.) with a bioavailability of 65% and a clearance of 24.9 ml/min/kg.
