简介内容:MK-8666 Tris is a partial GPCR (G-protein-coupled receptor) agonist that is coordinated with the action of GPR40. GPR40, also known as free fatty acid (FFA) receptor 1 modulates fatty acid-induced insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cells and in intestinal enteroendocrine cells. Thus, MK-8666 Tris has been investigated for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and has been shown to robustly lower glucose without negative effects.
