Target Details for FFAR1

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

Alternative Name: FFAR1

Background:

Background Information: FFAR1 is receptor for medium and long chain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. It binding of the ligand increase intracellular calcium concentration and amplify glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G-proteins that activate phospholipase C.
