摘要: Background: Free fatty acids (FFAs) acutely stimulate but chronically impair glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from β-cells. The G protein-coupled transmembrane receptor 40 (GPR40) mediates both acute and chronic effects of FFAs on plays a role in glucose homeostasis. Limited information is available the effect GPR40 genetic abnormalities metabolic regulation human subjects. Study Design Results: For vivo studies, we screened 734 subjects for coding region identified new single-nucleotide mutation (Gly180Ser). mean allele frequency was 0.75%, which progressively increased (P < 0.05) nonobese (0.42%) to moderately obese (body mass index = 30–39.9 kg/m2, 1.07%) severely patients ≥ 2.60%). relationship between mutation, secretion, alterations studied 11 Gly/Ser carriers. In these subjects, (insulinogen...
