Notes: The free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1; GPR40) is highly expressed in pancreatic β-cells and activated by medium and long-chain fatty acids.{13138} 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.{13139,14742} 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).{21349}
