The actual mechanisms by which | hGPR40 functions as a free fatty acid receptor that participates in [http://www.abcam.com/pathways/overview-of-insulin-signaling-pathways insulin signaling] to regulate blood glucose concentrations. The actual mechanisms by which insulin signaling occurs are unknown, but there are multiple theoretical mechanisms for how hGPR40 participates in the regulation of glucose uptake.<ref name="Srivastava"/> | ||
