New Frontiers in Gut Nutrient Sensor Research: Free Fatty Acid Sensing in the Gastrointestinal Tract
Utilizing the human genome database, the recently developed G-protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) deorphanizing strategy successfully identified multiple receptors of free fatty acids (FFAs). FFAs have been demonstrated to act as ligands of several GPCRs (FFAR1, FFAR2, FFAR3, and GPR120). These fatty...
