Application

Human glucagon EP Reference standard, intended for use in laboratory tests only as specifically prescribed in the European Pharmacopoeia.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucagon is a 29-amino acid peptide hormone secreted by pancreatic α-cells that raises blood glucose and (indirectly) insulin levels. Glucagon acts via a G protein-coupled receptor, which results in the release of glucose 1-phosphate from glycogen.

Packaging

The product is delivered as supplied by the issuing Pharmacopoeia. For the current unit quantity, please visit the EDQM reference substance catalogue.

Other Notes

Highly-conserved 29-amino acid polypeptide hormone produced by the pancreatic cells.

The objective of our study was to evaluate the use of i.v. glucagon in pediatric patients undergoing MR enterography. Forty-seven patients underwent clinical MR enterography examinations consisting of identical breath-hold T1-weighted 3D gradient-recalled echo fat-saturated pulse sequences before and after

Glucagon activates hepatic protein kinase A (PKA) to increase glucose production, but the gluco-stimulatory effect is transient even in the presence of continuous intravenous glucagon infusion. Continuous intravenous infusion of insulin, however, inhibits glucose production through its sustained actions in
