Abstract
The present invention provides agonists of FGF21 signaling. In particular, the present invention provides FGF21 receptor (FGF21R) agonists that are capable of simultaneously binding βKlotho (KLB) and/or FGFR1c to mimic the signaling activity of FGF21. The present invention also provides anti-FGF21 and anti-KLB/FGFR1c antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof. Also provided are methods of treating various metabolic disorders by administering the FGF21R agonists and/or anti-FGF21 antibodies to a subject in need thereof.
