Fasiglifam hemihydrate purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: J Cell Biochem. 2017 May;118(5):1249-1261. [Abstract]
Free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1) agonist induces LOX-1 upregulation in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Cultured VSMCs are treated with synthetic agonists for either FFAR1 (TAK-875) or FFAR4 (TUG-891) at indicated doses for 24 hours. Both FFAR1 and FFAR4 are known responsible for long chain fatty acids. 0.1% DMSO is used as solvent control (SC). Western blotting detection indicates that treatment with agonistic action of FFAR1, but not FFAR4, remarkably upregulated LOX-1 expressi
