    Applications
    The Glucagon Receptor (GCGR) plays a pivotal role in glucose homeostasis and metabolic regulation. Recent research has highlighted the therapeutic potential of GCGR/GLP-1R dual agonists, such as BI 456906, which exhibit robust anti-obesity efficacy by modulating energy expenditure and food intake. Moreover, glucagon signaling via GCGR has been shown to reduce cell viability in liver cancer cells without stimulating gluconeogenic gene expression, suggesting a potential tumor suppressive role for glucagon/GCGR in liver cancer. Additionally, the dual agonist Cotadutide has demonstrated resolution of NASH and hepatic fibrosis by modulating mitochondrial function and lipogenesis.

    FAQ

    chat Dorothy (Verified Customer)

    What is the primary function of GCGR in glucose metabolism? Mar 04 2022

    chat Patrick Liam (Creative Biolabs Scientific Support)

    GCGR, or glucagon receptor, mediates the effects of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood glucose levels by promoting glycogen breakdown and gluconeogenesis in the liver. Mar 04 2022

    chat Stephanie (Verified Customer)

    How does GCGR dysfunction relate to diabetes? Dec 10 2020

    chat Patrick Liam (Creative Biolabs Scientific Support)

    Dysregulation or dysfunction of GCGR can lead to impaired glucose homeostasis, contributing to the development of type 2 diabetes. Dec 10 2020
