Background:

CID 1375606 is a surrogate agonist of orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR27.

CID 1375606 is a GPR27-specific surrogate agonist. GPR27 is characterized by a high level of conservation among vertebrates and a predominant expression in the central nervous system. In addition, it has recently been linked to insulin secretion[1].
