GW9508 (885101-89-3) is a selective agonist at the free fatty acid receptor, FFA1/4, (GPR40 and GPR120).1 Displays anti-allodynic and anti-hyperalgesic effects in mouse inflammatory and neuropathic pain models.2 Inhibits LPA-induced proliferation of DU145 and PC-3 cells.3 Decreases hepatic lipid accumulation in a high fat diet steatosis mouse model.4 Promotes brown adipose tissue thermogenesis.5
