Cat No:LP000421
Product Name:GRA Ex-25
CAS#307983-31-9
GRA Ex-25 binds a human glucagon receptor (h-GlucRbind) with Ki of 63 nM and a moderate glucagon induced adenylate cyclase inhibition (h-GlucRcyclase) with Ki of 254 nM under our assay conditions[1]. GRA Ex-25 has similar affinity to the rat and human glucagon receptors (IC50=56 and 55 nM, respectively).
GRA Ex-25 (3 mg/kg, i.v.) significantly reduces blood glucose caused by exogenous administration of glucagon in rat model. GRA Ex-25 is able to inhibit the rise in blood glucose levels elicited by exogenous administered glucagon, most likely because of the direct inhibition of glucagon stimulated hepatic glucose output.
