Various fatty acids, including in particular two omega-3 fatty acids, docosahexaenoic and eicosapentaenoic acids, have been consumed in diets and supplements for the purposes of preventing or treating the disorders that recent studies suggest are associated with abnormalities in FFAR1's functions. (wikipedia.org)
It is now known that these fatty acids activate (i.e. are agonists of) FFAR1 as well as FFAR4. (wikipedia.org)
While dietary and supplemental omega-3 fatty acids have had no or only marginally significant therapeutic effects on these disorders (see health effects of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation), drugs have been developed that are more potent and selective in activating FFAR1 than the omega-3 fatty acids. (wikipedia.org)
This raised the possibility that the drugs may be more effective than the omega-3 fatty acids in treating these diseases and prompted studies testing their effectiveness to do so. (wikipedia.org)
FFAR2 and FFAR3 are activated by short-chain fatty acids (i.e., fatty acid chains consisting of 2 to 5 carbon atoms) such as acetic, butyric, and propionic acids. (wikipedia.org)
Among the fatty acids that activate FFAR1 (and FFAR4), docosahexaenoic and eicosahexaenoic acids are commonly regarded as the main dietary fatty acids that do so and may be useful therapeutic agents. (wikipedia.org)
