Description
Free fatty acid G protein coupled receptor family consists of four members and plays significant roles in nutrition regulation. GPR40 and GPR120 are activated by medium and long-chain FFAs, whereas GPR41 and GPR43 are activated by short-chain FFAs. GPR40, preferentially expressed in pancreatic beta-cells, mediates the majority of the effects of FFAs on insulin secretion. Research findings have shown that GPR40 as a potential therapeutic target plays an important role in the chain of events linking obesity and type2 diabetes.

Application Examples
Figure: Shown above are the intracellular calcium responses of CHO-K1 cells stably expressing Homo sapiens free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1/GPR40) and of untransfected control cells. Cells were loaded with Calcium-4 and then stimulated with the indicated concentrations of Oleic acid. Calcium responses were recorded on a FlexStation plate reader. Data represent the average +/- standard deviation of triplicate determinations.
