Name | Glucagon (1-29), bovine, human, porcine hydrochloride |
Description | Glucagon (1-29), bovine, human, porcine hydrochloride (Porcine glucagon hydrochloride) is a peptide hormone produced by pancreatic α-cells that activates HNF4α, increases HNF4α phosphorylation, and stimulates gluconeogenesis. |
In vitro | Glucagon stimulates both hepatic kisspeptin1 production and gluconeogenesis. Upon binding to its receptor Gcgr, Glucagon activates cAMP-PKA signaling to stimulate hepatic glucose production (HGP) and cause hyperglycemia. Glucagon (100 nM) increases the phosphorylation of HNF4α. Glucagon (100 nM) represses CYP7A1 mRNA expression in human primary hepatocytes [3]. |
In vivo | Glucagon (20 μg/kg) increases glycemia and does not stimulate insulin secretion in ambient-fed mice. High-dose (1 mg/kg) Glucagon lowers glycemia compared with PBS control and stimulates insulin secretion in ambient-fed mice [4]. |
