Emergency Medicine, 2003
AbstractDespite its infrequent usage, glucagon is an important drug in the ED. It has both well established and less well established indications. This article reviews its role for the practising emergency physician.

Glucagon and the Glucagon-Like Peptides
Pancreas, 1990Glucagon and the glucagon-like peptides are encoded within a larger precursor, proglucagon. The proglucagon gene is expressed in the pancreas, intestine, and brain, giving rise to a single proglucagon mRNA transcript that is identical in all tissues. Tissue-specific posttranslational processing of proglucagon accounts for the different molecular forms ...

Glucagon and Glucagon-like Peptides in Fishes
1996Glucagon and glucagon-like peptides (GLPs) are coencoded in the vertebrate proglucagon gene. Large differences exist between fishes and other vertebrates in gene structure, peptide expression, peptide chemistry, and function of the hormones produced.

Metabolism, 1976
Although suspected to exist as a pancreatic hyperglycemic factor as early as 1923, isolated and crystallized by 1953, and measurable by radioimmunoassay since 1959, only in the last decade has glucagon become firmly established as a critical hormone in the minute-to-minute regulation of the blood glucose concentration.

Digestion, 2009
From the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract a number of peptides can be extracted, which are glucagon-like in their behavior towards antisera raised against the pancreatic hormone. The biochemistry and physiology of these peptides are critically reviewed.

Medical Clinics of North America, 1978
We have considered the evidence, first, that the presence of glucagon is essential in the pathogenesis of the full syndrome that results from complete insulin deficiency; second, that in the diabetic in whom insulin levels are relatively fixed, a rise in glucagon concentration contributes to endogenous hyperglycemia; and, third, that conventional ...
