TUG 891
- Soluble in DMSO
- MF: C23H21FO3
- MW: 364.41
Description
TUG 891 is a potent and selective GPR120/FFA4 agonist with reported EC50 values of 44 nM for human GPR120 and 17 nM for mouse GPR120. It activates free fatty acid receptor signaling linked to metabolic and inflammatory regulation.
GPR120/FFA4 responds to long-chain fatty acids and regulates incretin secretion, insulin sensitivity, macrophage inflammation and lipid metabolism. TUG 891 is useful for studying FFA4-selective GPCR pharmacology in metabolic and immunometabolic models.
