ABSTRACT
As critical regulators of almost all physiological processes in the body, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important regulators of glucose homeostasis. Some of the newer drugs for treating diabetes mellitus or in development are also targeting GPCRs. This chapter provides a summary of some of the GPCRs that have been shown to be involved in regulating glucose homeostasis.
