Bioactivity | GSK137647A (GSK 137647) is a potent, selective free fatty acid receptor 4 (FFA4) agonist with pEC50 values of 6.3, 6.2, and 6.1 for human, mouse and rat FFA4, and pEC50 values < 4.5 for all three species for FFA1, FFA2, and FFA3, respectively. GSK137647A has anti-inflammatory activity. GSK137647A induces insulin secretion and inhibits epithelial ion transport, GSK137647A is related to regulation of glucose homeostasis and anti-inflammatory response[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
