Notes: Free fatty acid receptor 4 (FFAR4/GPR120) is a G protein-coupled receptor expressed in intestine, adipocytes, and pro-inflammatory macrophages that is activated by long chain free fatty acids.{27421,22326} ω-3 Fatty acids, such as docosahexaenoic acid (Item No. 90310) and eicosapentaenoic acid (Item No. 90110), initiate FFAR4 signaling, resulting in inhibition of toll-like receptor and TNF-α inflammatory signaling pathways in a β-arrestin2/TAB1 dependent manner.{22326} AH 7614 is a selective FFAR4 antagonist (IC50s = 0.079 and 25 µM for human FFAR4 and FFAR1 receptors, respectively).{28870} In U2OS osteosarcoma cells expressing the FFAR4 receptor, it has been shown to inhibit intracellular calcium accumulation induced by either linoleic acid or an FFAR4 agonist.{28870}
