SERP Comments:
DS-1558 is a potent agonist of human (EC50 = 3.7 nM) and rat (EC50 = 12 nM) GPR40 as determined in a calcium flux assay in GPR40-transfected CHO cells. DS-1558 shows good selectivity against PPAR gamma and no activity against GPR120. In addition, DS-1558 revealed > 100-fold selectivity over 68 other diverse receptors, ion channels and transporters. GPR40-mediated effects on glucose-stimulated insulin secretion were confirmed in isolated islets from GPR40 KO and wild-type mice. In vivo PK data is available for rat, dog and monkey. In vivo efficacy was demonstrated in a glucose tolerance model in ZDF rats.
