Application: Glucagon is a 29-amino-acid peptide hormone secreted by pancreatic alpha cells in response to low blood glucose levels. Acting primarily on the liver, glucagon stimulates glycogen breakdown and glucose production, helping maintain systemic glucose homeostasis during fasting or hypoglycemic conditions. Dysregulated glucagon signaling contributes to hyperglycemia and metabolic imbalance in type 2 diabetes. This peptide is widely used in endocrine, metabolic, and diabetes research to study hepatic glucose output, glucagon receptor signaling, pancreatic hormone regulation, glucose homeostasis, and therapeutic strategies targeting abnormal glucagon activity.
