what is 'glucagon'?

Glucagon is an important hormone involved in carbohydrate metabolism . Produced by the pancreas , it is released when the glucose level in the blood is low ( hypoglycemia ), causing the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose and release it into the bloodstream.

Glucagon is an important hormone involved in carbohydrate metabolism . Produced by the pancreas , it is released when the glucose level in the blood is low ( hypoglycemia ), causing the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose and release it into the bloodstream. The action of glucagon is thus opposite to that of insulin , which instructs the body's cells to take in glucose from the blood. However, glucagon also paradoxically stimulates the release of insulin, so that newly available glucose in the bloodstream can be taken up and used by insulin-dependent tissues.
