Target Details for FFAR1

Target: FFAR1 (Free Fatty Acid Receptor 1 (FFAR1))

Alternative Name: GPR40

Background:

Synonyms: FFA1R, GPR40, GPCR40, Free fatty acid receptor 1, G-protein coupled receptor 40, FFAR1

Background: G-protein coupled receptor for medium and long chain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids that plays an important role in glucose homeostasis. Fatty acid binding increases glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, and may also enhance the secretion of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). May also play a role in bone homeostasis, receptor signaling activates pathways that inhibit osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Ligand binding leads to a conformation change that triggers signaling via G-proteins that activate phospholipase C, leading to an increase of the intracellular calcium concentration. Seems to act through a G(q) and G(i)-mediated pathway.
