Application
Western blot analysis of Glucagon Antibody (C-term) in Jurkat cell line lysates (35ug/lane). GCG (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.Application
Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human colon carcinoma with Glucagon Antibody (C-term), which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.Application
Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of Glucagon Antibody (C-term) with pancreas tissue followed by Alexa Fluor搴?488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit lgG (green). DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclear (blue).Application
Flow cytometric analysis of WiDr cells using Glucagon Antibody (C-term)(bottom histogram) compared to a negative control cell (top histogram). FITC-conjugated goat-anti-rabbit secondary antibodies were used for the analysis.| Product Name | Glucagon Antibody (C-term) |

| Function | Glucagon plays a key role in glucose metabolism and homeostasis. Regulates blood glucose by increasing gluconeogenesis and decreasing glycolysis. A counterregulatory hormone of insulin, raises plasma glucose levels in response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Plays an important role in initiating and maintaining hyperglycemic conditions in diabetes GLP-2 stimulates intestinal growth and up-regulates villus height in the small intestine, concomitant with increased crypt cell proliferation and decreased enterocyte apoptosis. The gastrointestinal tract, from the stomach to the colon is the principal target for GLP-2 action. Plays a key role in nutrient homeostasis, enhancing nutrient assimilation through enhanced gastrointestinal function, as well as increasing nutrient disposal. Stimulates intestinal glucose transport and decreases mucosal permeability Glicentin may modulate gastric acid secretion and the gastro-pyloro-duodenal activity. May play an important role in intestinal mucosal growth in the early period of life |
| Tissue Specificity | Glucagon is secreted in the A cells of the islets of Langerhans. GLP-1, GLP-2, oxyntomodulin and glicentin are secreted from enteroendocrine cells throughout the gastrointestinal tract. GLP-1 and GLP-2 are also secreted in selected neurons in the brain |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted. |
