Incretins today: multiple effects and therapeutic potential
Glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are the incretin hormones initially discovered in the 1960s. GIP and GLP-1 have gained great scientific interest due to their properties in increasing insulin secretion ...

Studies of the development of diabetic ketosis in the rat
Plasma glucose, free fatty acid, ketone, and triglyceride concentrations were measured at frequent intervals after the administration of alloxan to rats. Hepatic triglyceride levels were determined in the same animals.

Optimal Regulation of Blood Glucose Level in Type I Diabetes using Insulin and Glucagon
The Glucose-Insulin-Glucagon nonlinear model [1-4] accurately describes how the body responds to exogenously supplied insulin and glucagon in patients affected by Type I diabetes.

The Physiology of Glucagon [PDF]
This short review outlines the physiology of glucagon in vivo, with an emphasis on its neural control, the author's area of interest. Glucagon is secreted from alpha cells, which are a minority of the pancreatic islet. Anatomically, they are down stream from the majority islet beta cells.

Design Principles of Pancreatic Islets: Glucose-dependent Coordination of Hormone Pulses
Pancreatic islets are functional units involved in glucose homeostasis. The multicellular system comprises three main cell types; $\beta$ and $\alpha$ cells reciprocally decrease and increase blood glucose by producing insulin and glucagon pulses, while ...
