Abstract

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) continue to be important discovery targets for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Many GPCRs are directly involved in the development of insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction, and in the etiology of inflammation that can lead to obesity-induced T2DM. This review summarizes the current literature describing a number of well-validated GPCR targets, but also outlines several new and promising targets for drug discovery. We highlight the importance of understanding the role of these receptors in the disease pathology, and their basic pharmacology, which will pave the way to the development of novel pharmacological probes that will enable these targets to fulfill their promise for the treatment of these metabolic disorders.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Triple agonists act by simultaneously targeting GLP-1R, GIPR, and GCGR.

    “These drugs act by simultaneously targeting three different agonists GLP-1R, the GIPR, and the GCGR.149–151”

    From Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor: mechanisms and advances in therapy (2024) · cites this paper as [149]

    The Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor section describes dual-specificity agonists targeting GLP-1 and glucagon receptors or GLP-1 and GIP receptors. It does not say that a triple agonist targets GLP-1R, GIPR, and GCGR simultaneously; no page number is available in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
