receptor (GPCR) that has been identified as a target for possible treatment of type 2 diabetes. A selective activator of GPR120 containing a chromane scaffold has been designed, synthesized, and evaluated in vivo. Results of these efforts suggest that chromane propionic acid 18 is a suitable tool molecule for further animal studies. Compound 18 is selective over the closely related target GPR40 (FFAR1)
GPR120(FFAR4)是脂肪酸敏感的G蛋白偶联受体(GPCR),已被确定为可能治疗2型糖尿病的靶标。体内设计,合成和评估了含有苯并二氢吡喃骨架的GPR120选择性激活剂。这些努力的结果表明,苯丙氨酸丙酸18是用于进一步动物研究的合适工具分子。化合物18在紧密相关的靶标GPR40(FFAR1)上具有选择性,具有干净的脱靶谱,显示合适的药代动力学特性,并已在野生型/基因敲除GPR120小鼠oGTT研究中进行了评估。
