RO5527239 is a potent, orally available GPBAR1 agonist. | [Uses]
RO5527239 is an orally active TGR5 agonist, that induces a stimulatory response from intestinal L cells and specificially secrets the endogenous hormone GLP-2[1]. | [in vivo]
RO5527239 (30 mg/kg, p.o. for 10 days) stimulates the TGR5 receptor, upregulates L cells and L cells hormone GLP-2, triggers a GLP-2-dependent intestinal adaption in C57BL/6N mice[1]. Animal Model: | GLP-2r-/- and GLP-2r+/+ C57Bl/6N mice[1] | Dosage: | 30 mg/kg | Administration: | p.o. for 10 days | Result: | Increased GLP-1 and GLP-2 concentrations in the colon, gallbladder weight with both genotype. Increased villus height in the duodenum and decreased colon length in GLP-2r+/+ mice. |
