Allosteric receptor modulation of FFA2R turns natural agonists into potent activators of the superoxide generating neutrophil NADPH-oxidase
2018-03-19
Abstract excerpt
Acetate, agonist for the free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2R/GPR43), triggers an increase in the cytosolic concentration of free Ca 2+ in neutrophils without any assembly of the superoxide generating NADPH-oxidase. We show that the phenylacetamide compound 58 (Cmp58; (S)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-N-(5-phenylthiazol-2-yl)butanamide, lacking a direct activating effect on neutrophils, acts as a positive alloster...
