GPR119 agonist enhances gefitinib responsiveness through lactate-mediated inhibition of autophagy

Abstract Background Ligand-dependent activation of the G-protein coupled receptor 119 (GPR119) lowers blood glucose via glucose-dependent insulin secretion and intestinal glucagon-like peptide-1 production. However, the function of GPR119 in cancer cells has not been studied. Methods GPR119 expressi...
