logEC50: −7.62[1]
GPR120 Compound A specifically targets the G protein-coupled receptor 120 (GPR120), a lipid-sensing receptor. It acts as a potent and selective agonist, activating GPR120 with an EC50 of approximately 0.35 µM. This activation is believed to have beneficial effects on hepatic lipid metabolism, leading to decreased liver triglycerides and hepatic steatosis. Its selectivity over GPR40 is a key feature of its mechanism. |

| ln Vitro |
GPR120 Agonist 3 has minimal activity towards Gpr40 and complete selectivity for Gpr120 (logEC50=−7.62). Both human and mouse Gpr120 expressing cells generate concentration-dependent increases in IP3 synthesis when exposed to GPR120 Agonist 3. With EC50s of approximately 0.35 μM, GPR120 Agonist 3 causes β-arrestin-2 to be recruited in both human and mouse Gpr120 expressing cells in a concentration-dependent manner. GPR120 Agonist 3 suppresses LPS-induced phosphorylation of Tak1, Ikkβ, and Jnk and prevents IκB degradation in a strong and comparable manner [1].
In vitro, GPR120 Compound A is a potent agonist of GPR120. It activates GPR120 with a logEC50 of -7.62 and an EC50 of approximately 0.35 µM. Its activity is characterized by its ability to selectively activate GPR120 over GPR40. This makes it a valuable tool for studying the specific signaling pathways activated by GPR120. |
| ln Vivo |
Only in WT mice, GPR120 Agonist 3 improves insulin sensitivity by raising glucose infusion rates, insulin-stimulated glucose disposal rates, and insulin's capacity to suppress hepatic glucose synthesis. Treatment with GPR120 Agonist 3 improves hepatic lipid metabolism by reducing liver triglycerides, DAGs, and hepatic steatosis, as well as the content of saturated free fatty acids[1].
In vivo, GPR120 Compound A has been shown to have beneficial effects on hepatic lipid metabolism. It causes decreased liver triglycerides, decreased hepatic steatosis, and decreased saturated free fatty acid content. These findings suggest that GPR120 agonism could be a therapeutic strategy for treating metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and related conditions. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding studies for GPR120 Compound A are not typical, as it is a receptor agonist. Its activity is assessed in cell-based functional assays. In these assays, cells expressing GPR120 are treated with the compound, and receptor activation is measured by downstream signaling events, such as calcium mobilization or cAMP modulation. The EC50 of approximately 0.35 µM is determined from these experiments.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for GPR120 Compound A are the primary method for evaluating its activity. In these experiments, cells expressing GPR120 are treated with the compound, and the activation of the receptor is measured. Key readouts include the mobilization of intracellular calcium, which is a common signaling pathway for G protein-coupled receptors. These assays confirm the compound's mechanism as a potent GPR120 agonist.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Mice: Male C57Bl/6 WT or Gpr120 KO littermates are fed a normal
chow (13.5% fat) or high-fat diet (60% fat) ad libitum for 15-20 weeks
from 8 weeks of age. After 15 weeks on HFD, WT and Gpr120 KO mice are
switched to an isocaloric HFD supplemented with ω3-FA concentrate or 30
mg/kg GPR120-IN-1 and fed for 5 weeks. Mice receive fresh diet every 3rd
day, and food consumption and body weight are monitored[1].

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of GPR120 Compound A are characterized by its oral availability. It has a molecular weight of 405.84 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₁₉H₂₃ClF₃NO₃. It is soluble in DMSO and ethanol. These properties are favorable for an orally administered compound and are important for its use in in vivo studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for GPR120 Compound A are limited, as it is a research compound. Its primary value is as a tool for studying GPR120 biology. While specific toxicity profiles are not detailed, its mechanism of activating a lipid-sensing receptor could have metabolic effects. Comprehensive safety studies are not available in the public domain.
