Background GPR120 is a member of the free fatty acid G protein-coupled receptor family that includes GPR40, GPR41 and GPR43, and is activated by unsaturated long chain free fatty acids (Hirasawa et al., 2005). Expression analysis shows that GPR120 is abundantly expressed in intestine. Stimulation of GPR120 by free fatty acids has been shown to promote the secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and activate the ERK cascade (Hirasawa et al., 2005). More recently, Katsuma et al showed that activation of GPR120 by free fatty acids such as linolenic acid inhibits apoptosis of a murine enteroendocrine cell line.

Safety Considerations

The following safety precautions should be observed.

1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum.

2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line.

3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab.

4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells.

5. All waste should be considered hazardous.

6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach.
