What is Glucagon?
Glucagon is a peptide hormone, produced by alpha cells of the pancreas, that raises the concentration of glucose in the
bloodstream. Its effect is opposite that of insu.lin, which lowers the glucose concentration.The pancreas releases glucagon when the concentration of glucose in the bloodstream falls too low. Glucagon causes the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose,which is released into the bloodstream. High blood glucose levels stimulate the release of insu.lin. Insu.lin allows glucose to be taken up and used by insu.lin-dependent tissues. Thus, glucagon and insu.lin are part of a feedback system that keeps blood glucose levels at a stable level. Glucagon belongs to a family of several other related hormones.
