MedKoo Cat#: 504110 | Name: Fasiglifam
Featured New

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Fasiglifam, also known as TAK-875, is a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable GPR40 agonist, with a pharmacokinetic profile enabling long-acting drug efficacy. TAK-875 showed potent plasma glucose-lowering action and insulinotropic action during an oral glucose tolerance test in female Wistar fatty rats with impaired glucose tolerance. TAK-875 is currently in clinical trials for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Biological target:
Fasiglifam (TAK-875) is a selective GPR40 agonist with EC50 of 14 nM in human GPR40 expressing CHO cell line, 400-fold more potent than oleic acid.
In vitro activity:
Insulinoma cell lines and primary rat islets were used to assess the effects of TAK-875 in vitro. In rat insulinoma INS-1 833/15 cells, TAK-875 increased intracellular inositol monophosphate and calcium concentration, consistent with activation of the Gqα signaling pathway. The insulinotropic action of TAK-875 (10 μM) in INS-1 833/15 and primary rat islets was glucose-dependent. Prolonged exposure of cytokine-sensitive INS-1 832/13 to TAK-875 for 72 h at pharmacologically active concentrations did not alter glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, insulin content, or caspase 3/7 activity, whereas prolonged exposure to palmitic or oleic acid impaired β cell function and survival. Reference: J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 2011 Oct;339(1):228-37. https://jpet.aspetjournals.org/cgi/pmidlookup?view=long&pmid=21752941
In vivo activity:
The in vivo effects of TAK-875 on postprandial hyperglycemia, fasting hyperglycemia, and normoglycemia were examined in type 2 diabetic and normal rats. In an oral glucose tolerance test in type 2 diabetic N-STZ-1.5 rats, TAK-875 (1-10 mg/kg p.o.) showed a clear improvement in glucose tolerance and augmented insulin secretion. In addition, TAK-875 (10 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly augmented plasma insulin levels and reduced fasting hyperglycemia in male Zucker diabetic fatty rats, whereas in fasted normal Sprague-Dawley rats, TAK-875 neither enhanced insulin secretion nor caused hypoglycemia even at 30 mg/kg. TAK-875 enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion and improves both postprandial and fasting hyperglycemia with a low risk of hypoglycemia and no evidence of β cell toxicity.
