The carboxylate moiety of the agonist enters through the auxiliary loop of hGPR40, disrupts the hydrogen bonding of the charge network, and binds with Arg 183, Arg 258, Tyr 91, and Tyr 240.<ref name="Srivastava"/> TAK-875 has shown efficacy in increasing insulin secretion and lowering blood glucose in rodent models of type 2 diabetes.<ref name="Burant"/> This drug was studied in stage III clinical trials. It significantly reduced [http://www.diabetes.co.uk/what-is-hba1c.html HbA1c] and fasting plasma glucose levels in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes that was not controlled by diet and exercise. However, clinical trials were stopped shortly after this study because TAK-875 was suspected of causing liver damage.<ref name="Kaku">PMID:25787200</ref> | ||
