M Kebede, T Alquier, MG Latour, M Semache, … - Diabetes, 2008 - Am Diabetes Assoc OBJECTIVE—The G-protein–coupled receptor GPR40 is expressed in pancreatic
β-cells and is activated by long-chain fatty acids. Gene deletion studies have
shown that GPR40 mediates, at least in part, fatty acid–amplification of ... Cited by 13 - Related articles - All 4 versions

predominantly in pancreatic islets mediating free fatty acid–induced insulin
secretion. However, the physiological role of FFAR1 remains controversial. ... Cited by 9 - Related articles - All 5 versions
- ►diabetesjournals.org T Alquier, V Poitout - Diabetes, 2009 - Am Diabetes Assoc Since its deorphanization in 2003 (1,2), the fatty acid receptor GPR40
(FFAR1/FFA1) has drawn considerable attention as a potential therapeutic target
for type 2 diabetes. Because fatty acids acutely amplify insulin secretion ... Cited by 2 - Related articles - All 3 versions
