GPR142 is a novel GPCR that is predominantly expressed in pancreatic beta-cells. GPR142 agonists potentiate glucose-dependent insulin secretion, and therefore can reduce the risk of hypoglycemia. Optimization of our lead pyridinone-phenylalanine series led to a proof-of-concept compound 22, which showed in vivo efficacy in mice with dose-dependent increase in insulin secretion and a decrease in glucose levels.
