| Bioactivity | TGR5 Receptor Agonist (CCDC), a potent Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5; GPCR19) agonist, shows improved potency in the U2-OS cells and melanophore cells with pEC50s of 6.8 and 7.5, respectively. TGR5 Receptor Agonist can induce peripheral and central hypersensitivity to bladder distension in mice, and increase intracellular Ca2+ concentration. TGR5 Receptor Agonist can also reduces food intake and improves insulin responsiveness, in diet-induced obese mice. TGR5 Receptor Agonist can be used to research diabetes, bladder hypersensitivity and anti-obesity[1][2][3][4]. | ||||||||||||

| In Vivo | TGR5 Receptor Agonist (CCDC) activates directly a sub-population of bladder-innervating dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons and a small percentage of non-neuronal cells in Trpv1-/- mice[2].TGR5 Receptor Agonist (CCDC) (2 or 5 μg; ICV) reduces food intake and body weight in diet-induced obese mice[3].
