Our study suggests that IFN therapy may provoke two different forms of thyrotoxicosis: a Graves' disease picture or a biphasic thyroiditis pattern. The two entities should be differentiated, as they have different implications for treatment.

Visual Abstract

GPR142 is a G protein-coupled receptor that is predominantly expressed in pancreatic β-cells. GPR142 agonists stimulate insulin secretion in the presence of high glucose concentration, so that they could be novel insulin secretagogues with reduced or no risk of hypoglycemia. We report here the optimization of HTS hit compound 1 toward a proof of concept compound 33, which showed potent glucose lowering effects during an oral glucose tolerance test in mice and monkeys.
