Fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19, FGF-19) is found in the gut and it displays many pleiotropic effects. During time of feeding, it is released from the small intestine. The actions can be descried as being like that of insulin, for example, the inhibition of gluconeogenesis and the promotion of glucose uptake by adipocytes.
