Description

[Des-His1,Glu9] Glucagon is a potent glucagon receptor system peptide antagonist. [Des-His1,Glu9] Glucagon enhances the glucose-stimulated release of insulin from pancreatic islet cells. [Des-His1,Glu9] Glucagon can be used to research diabetes[1].

IC50 & Target

Glucagon Receptor[1]

In Vitro

[Des-His1,Glu9] Glucagon (1 pM-100 μM) does not activate membrane-bound adenylate cyclase up to a concentration of 2×10-4 molar in the cAMP assay on isolated rat liver membranes (from male Sprague Dawley rats)[1].

In Vivo

[Des-His1,Glu9] Glucagon (3.6-4.0 μg/kg for rabbits, 1 mg/kg for rats; i.v.; single dosage) suppresses hyperglycemic effects in rabbits and rats[1].

Animal Model: New Zealand rabbits (2.8-3.8 kg; fasted for 18 hours)[1]
Dosage: 3.6-4.0 μg/kg
Administration: i.v.; single dosage
Result: Suppressed hyperglycemic response of glucagon.
Animal Model: Male Wistar rats weighing [350-400 mg; hyperglycemia induced by i.p. injection of 65 mg/kg Streptozotocin (HY-13753)][1]
Dosage: 1 mg/kg
Administration: Intravenously administration through the tail vein; single dosage
Result: Decreased blood glucose rapidly, and reduced hyperglycemic effect by 70% within 5 min.
