G protein-coupled Bile Acid Receptor 1

G-protein coupled receptor 19; GPCR19; TGR5; GPBAR1

G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPCR19, TGR5, GPBAR1) is a plasma membrane-bound, G protein-coupled receptor that has bile acids as its ligand. GPCR19 is a regulator of energy homeostasis, bile acid homeostasis as well as glucose metabolism. GPCR19 transduces extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins.

GPCR19 can be activated by bile acids and then it induces cAMP production. As a membrane receptor, GPCR19 can be internalized into the cytoplasm in response to its ligands. GPCR19 plays important roles in cell signaling pathways such as nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), AKT, and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK). Its agonists may be potential drugs for the treatment of metabolic, inflammation, and digestive disorders. In addition, GPCR19 stimulates glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secretion. It also has become an attractive therapeutic target for the prevention and/or the treatment of obesity and its highly associated Type II diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

  • HY-126855S
    Cholic acid 7-sulfate-d4
    Agonist
    Cholic acid 7-sulfate-d4 (7-Sulfocholic acid-d4) is the deuterium labeled Cholic acid 7-sulfate (HY-126855). Cholic acid 7-sulfate is a selective agonist targeting TGR5 (EC50=0.17 μM) and a ligand for MHC class I-related protein (MR1). As a gut-restricted TGR5 agonist, cholic acid 7-sulfate binds to TGR5 on enteroendocrine L cells, induces GLP-1 secretion, and improves glucose tolerance in a TGR5-dependent manner. Cholic acid 7-sulfate also acts as an endogenous ligand for MR1, promoting the survival of mucosal-associated invariant T cells MAIT and the expression of homeostatic gene signatures, affecting MAIT cell development and function. Cholic acid 7-sulfate is mainly used in the research of diabetes and MAIT cell-related immune regulation.
