GSK-137647 | GPR120 agonist

GSK-137647 (349085-82-1) is a potent and selective agonist at free fatty acid receptor 4 (FFA4), also known as GPR120. pEC₅₀s= 6.3, 6.2 and 6.1 for human, mouse and rat receptor respectively¹. GSK-137647 enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in mouse insulinoma cells and induces intracellular calcium increase in U2OS osteosarcoma cells expressing GPR120².
