3 Cellular signaling pathways of butyrate 3.1 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) Butyrate is the ligand for metabolite-sensing G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), mainly GPR43, GPR41, and GPR109a (100), which are also known as free fatty acid receptors 2 (FFAR2), free fatty acid receptors 3 (FFAR3), and Hydroxy-carboxylic acid receptor 2(HCA2), respectively (101, 102)
