GLP-1R modulator-2
GLP-1R modulator-2 is a GLP-1R positive allosteric modulator with an EC50 of 106 nM. GLP-1R modulator-2 simultaneously binds to the extracellular pocket of GLP-1R and the peptide ligand GLP-1 (9-36) through a molecular glue-like allosteric effect, and selectively enhances GLP-1 (9-36)-induced G protein-dependent cAMP signaling. When used in combination with GLP-1 (9-36) under high-glucose conditions, GLP-1R modulator-2 enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion in wild-type rat pancreatic islets. GLP-1R modulator-2 exhibits strong probe dependence and significantly potentiates the activity of GLP-1 (9-36). GLP-1R modulator-2 can be used for research on type 2 diabetes and obesity .

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
GLP-1R modulator-2 (compound 3-24) potently enhances the GLP-1 (9-36)-induced cAMP signaling pathway in CHO-K1 cells expressing human GLP-1R, with an EC50 of 106 nM, while exerting only a weak effect on the activity of GLP-1 (7-36)[1].
GLP-1R modulator-2 does not potentiate glucagon-induced cAMP signaling pathways in CHO-K1 cells expressing human GCGR[1].
GLP-1R modulator-2 activates GLP-1R activity in rat INS-1E β cells and enhances the GLP-1 (7-36)-induced cAMP signaling pathway; at a concentration of 10 μM, it produces a 7.7-fold leftward shift in the EC50 value[1].
GLP-1R modulator-2 (1-30 μM) requires interactions with GLP-1R residues L142, Y145, and K202, as well as GLP-1 (9-36) residues V16 and L20, to enhance the cAMP signaling pathway in CHO-K1 cells transfected with GLP-1R[1].

Research Protocol for Endocrine Diseases
Endocrine diseases often arise from disrupted hormone production, hormone signaling, or target-tissue responsiveness; for diabetes-focused endocrine disease models, insulin signaling regulates glucose uptake, hepatic glucose output, lipid metabolism, and β-cell compensation. Type 2 diabetes develops through interacting defects in insulin resistance, β-cell dysfunction, adipose inflammation, hepatic glucose overproduction, altered incretin signaling, and ectopic lipid metabolism. A major unresolved question is whether endocrine dysfunction is driven primarily by target-tissue insulin resistance, intrinsic β-cell failure, immune/inflammatory stress, or combined multi-organ failure that differs by disease stage.

Research Protocol for Metabolic Diseases
AMP-activated protein kinase, AMPK, is a conserved cellular energy sensor that responds to reduced cellular energy status and coordinates metabolism by increasing ATP-generating catabolic pathways while suppressing ATP-consuming anabolic processes. In metabolic disease research, the AMPK pathway is experimentally relevant because it regulates hepatic lipid synthesis, fatty acid oxidation, glucose production, skeletal-muscle glucose disposal, mTORC1-linked biosynthesis, autophagy, mitochondrial homeostasis, and whole-body energy balance. The central pathway logic is that energy stress, metformin, exercise-like stimulation, or direct AMPK activators increase AMPKα Thr172 phosphorylation and downstream substrate phosphorylation, including ACC and RAPTOR. Phosphorylation of ACC suppresses lipogenesis and supports fatty acid oxidation, whereas phosphorylation of RAPTOR suppresses mTORC1 signaling and links cellular energy status to growth and protein synthesis control.
