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 this occurs are unknown, but there are multiple theoretical mechanisms for how hGPR40 accomplishes this.
