Takeda G-protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5) is emerging as an important and promising target for the development of anti-diabetic drugs. To understand the structural characteristics of TGR5 agonists, the common feature pharmacophore models were generated and molecular docking was performed. The ligand-based virtual screening combined with pharmacophore mapping and molecular docking was performed to identify novel nonsteroidal TGR5 agonists. Finally, 20 compounds were screened for <i>in vitro</i> ...[more]
