What is Glucagon?
- Glucagon is produced in the α-cells of the islets of Langerhans.
- The hormone opposes the action of insulin. Glucagon promotes the synthesis and mobilization of glucose from glycogen in the liver. The generation of glucose from lipids is regulated by glucagon as well.
- Additionally, glucagon induces inotropic and chronotropic effects by raising the concentration of cAMP.
- Highassay is your professional Glucagon supplier in China and offers GMP-graded high-quality materials with competitive prices and free samples.
Application of Glucagon
Glucagon is a hormone that promotes metabolism. It can significantly promote glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, increase blood sugar, and has the opposite effect of insulin. It can also promote the secretion of insulin and somatostatin. The glucagon provided by Highassay is mainly used for the preparation of solutions or injections, and can also be used for research and development.
