General description

Anti-Glucagon antibody detects endogenous levels of total Glucagon protein.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a gastrointestinal hormone. It is a 30-amino acid peptide, that is generated by the intestinal epithelial endocrine L-cells. it is mapped to human chromosome 2q24.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Glucagon.

Immunogen Range: 61-110

Application

Anti-glucagon antibody has been used in immunostaining and immunohistochemistry.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Immunohistochemistry (1 paper)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) increases glucose-dependent insulin secretion and terminates the liberation of glucagon. It acts as a physiological regulator of appetite and food intake. GLP-1 also helps to prevent the gastrointestinal movement and secretion.
