Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Glucagon (secreted by α-cells of the islet of Langerhans), acting via the class B G-protein-coupled glucagon receptor (GCGR) is a key player in glucose homeostasis and GCGR antagonists are being actively investigated as drug candidates for the treatment of diabetes.
