The present invention relates to methods of using GPR119
receptor to identify
peptide YY (PYY) secretagogues and compounds useful in the treatment of conditions modulated by PYY, such as conditions modulated by stimulation of NPY Y2
receptor (Y2R). Agonists of GPR119
receptor are useful as therapeutic agents for treating or preventing a condition modulated by PYY, such as a condition modulated by stimulation of Y2R. Conditions modulated by PYY such as may be a condition modulated by stimulation of Y2R include bone-related conditions, metabolic disorders,
angiogenesis-related conditions,
ischemia-related conditions, convulsive disorders, malabsorptive disorders, cancers, and inflammatory disorders.
