The effects of endogenous and exogenous hyperglucagonemia on the specific binding of glucagon to hepatocyte receptors was studied, as was the response of cAMP to glucagon. In streptozotocin diabetic rats, blood glucose and plasma glucagon increased and plasma insulin decreased as compared with controls. Insulin treatment in diabetic rats restored blood glucose and plasma glucagon toward normal ...
The effects of ingested and infused glucose upon circulating glucagon-like immunoreactivity (GLI) were compared in 14 triply catheterized conscious dogs. Within 60 min after the intraduodenal administration of 2 g/kg of glucose, the mean level of glucagon-like immunoreactivity in the vena caval plasma more than doubled, whereas after intravenous infusion of the same dose over a 90 min period no...
Previous studies have suggested that the lnotropic effects of glucagon on the guinea pig heart, but not on the rat heart, could be dissociated from its effects on cyclic AMP formation. We compared the effects of glucagon on working rat and guinea pig hearts to reinvestigate this proposed dissociation. When administered to spontaneously beating preparations, glucagon produced •imilar increases h...
The transcription factor Nkx6.1 is required for the establishment of functional insulin-producing beta-cells in the endocrine pancreas. Overexpression of Nkx6.1 has been shown to inhibit glucagon gene expression while favouring insulin gene activation. Down-regulation resulted in the opposite effect, suggesting that absence of Nkx6.1 favours glucagon gene expression. To understand the mechanism...
The hormone glucagon is secreted by the alpha-cells of the endocrine pancreas (islets of Langerhans) during fasting and is essential for the maintenance of blood glucose levels by stimulation of hepatic glucose output. Excessive production and secretion of glucagon by the alpha-cells of the islets is a common accompaniment to diabetes. The resulting hyperglucagonemia stimulates hepatic glucose ...
We have examined, by use of isolated canine hepatocytes and selected hormone analogs, the mechanisms by which glucagon modifies the accumulation of cellular cAMP. Low concentrations of glucagon (less than or equal to 3 nM) enhanced the accumulation of hepatocyte cAMP, whereas higher concentrations of the hormone diminished the effectiveness of lower ones. This biphasic concentration dependence ...
Context Glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists acutely lower serum glucagon. However, in the Liraglutide and β-Cell Repair (LIBRA) Trial, 48-week treatment with liraglutide yielded lower/unchanged fasting glucagon but, surprisingly, enhanced postchallenge glucagonemia [measured by R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN) assay]. Objective Because differences between glucagon assays potentially could explain t...
BACKGROUND We assessed the pharmacokinetics of subcutaneous insulin aspart and glucagon during closed-loop operation and their relationship with body composition variables. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data collected from closed-loop experiments in 15 type 1 diabetes patients (age 47.1 ± 12.3 years, body mass index 25.9 ± 4.6 kg/m², glycated hemoglobin 7.9% ± 0.7%). Patients received a...
Glucagon stimulates hepatic glucose production by activating specific glucagon receptors in the liver, which in turn increase hepatic glycogenolysis as well as gluconeogenesis and ureagenesis from amino acids. Conversely, glucagon secretion is regulated by concentrations of glucose and amino acids. Disruption of glucagon signaling in rodents results in grossly elevated circulating glucagon leve...
Tight glycemic control is important in reducing and delaying vascular complications in type 1 and 2 diabetes patients; however, the benefits achieved through strict metabolic control are counterbalanced by an increased risk of hypoglycemia. Glucagon is an effective therapy for treating severe hypoglycemia. Available as an emergency kit, glucagon is an essential tool for rapid response, but rema...
