TAS2R14 agonist 28.1 (sometimes referred to simply as 28.1) is an experimental drug that acts as a potent and selective agonist of the bitter taste receptor TAS2R14. It was developed by modification of flufenamic acid, a pharmaceutical known for its bitter taste which produces bitterness via activation of TAS2R14, but is around six times more potent. TAS2R14 is also expressed in the lungs and causes bronchodilatation, so TAS2R14 agonists such as 28.1 may be useful in the treatment of asthma and other lung diseases.[1]
