Product Name | Glucagon (1-29), bovine, human, porcine |

Description | Glucagon is a peptide hormone that is secreted by islet Langerhans alpha cells to respond to low circulating blood sugar levels and restore normal blood sugar levels. It acts on liver enzymes that regulate glucose production and glycogen synthesis. Excessive circulating glucagon levels are related to metabolic disorders in type 2 diabetes, because this condition can lead to hyperglycemia. |
