Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE However, the effects of GPR120 activation on dietary fat intake or obesity are not clearly understood. 31806728 2020
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE The combination of physical exercise and ω3 food sources could provide a new strategy against obesity through the modulation of hepatic GPR120 and an increase in exercise performance. 30771734 2019
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE These findings indicate that GPR120 activation is protective against lipotoxicity-induced pancreatic β-cell dysfunction, via the mediation of PDX1 expression and inhibition of islet inflammation, and that GPR120 activation may serve as a preventative and therapeutic target for obesity and diabetes. 30523046 2019
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Collectively, these data suggest that activation of brown adipocytes with the GPR120 agonist TUG-891 is a promising strategy to increase lipid combustion and reduce obesity. 29343498 2018
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Insulinotropic effects of GPR120 agonists are altered in obese diabetic and obese non-diabetic states. 27980130 2017
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Obesity is associated with altered duodenal expression of FFAR1, FFAR4 and CD36, suggesting altered capacity for the sensing, absorption and metabolism, of dietary lipids. 27811952 2017
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE The effects of FAs on TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10 and adiponectin expression in non-obese and MO subjects were significantly annulled when the GPR120 gene was silenced in visceral adipocytes differentiated from human mesenchymal stem cells. 27299582 2017
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Here, we evaluate the expression and potential role of hypothalamic GPR120 and GPR40 as targets for the treatment of obesity. 28446241 2017
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In humans, the loss of function p.R270H variant of the gene FFAR4 has been associated with a lower protein activity, an increased risk of obesity and higher fasting plasma glucose levels. 27212621 2016
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE p.R270H (rs116454156) in the long chain fatty acid 7TM receptor FFAR4 (GPR120) which results in impaired Gαq (Gq) coupled signalling, has been associated with obesity. 27068006 2016
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Gpr120-deficient mice develop obesity and both impaired fasting glucose and glucose intolerance under a high-fat diet. 26025001 2015
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE G protein-coupled receptor 120 (GPR 120) levels are reduced in pediatric OSA and obesity (particularly when both are present) and may play a role in modulating the degree of insulin resistance. 24790272 2014

Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Stratifying the patients with the GPR120 270H variant on the basis of their PNPLA3 polymorphism, we demonstrated a significant interaction effect on ALT levels (P = 0.00001), suggesting a driving effect of the PNPLA3 148M allele on liver injury in children with obesity carrying this variant. 25250621 2014
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE We analyzed the association between GPR120 and obesity, and the FA effects on its expression. 24913719 2014
