Exploring the insulin secretory properties of the PGD(2)-GPR44/DP2 axis in vitro and in a randomized phase-1 trial of type 2 diabetes patients

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: GPR44 (DP2, PTGDR2, CRTh2) is the receptor for the pro-inflammatory mediator prostaglandin D(2) (PGD(2)) and it is enriched in human islets. In rodent islets, PGD(2) is produced in response to glucose, suggesting that the PGD(2)-GPR44/DP2 axis may play a role in human islet function...
