Glucagon molecule. Computer model showing the structure of the human hormone glucagon. Glucagon is a peptide hormone, produced by alpha cells of the pancreas. It raises the concentration of glucose in the bloodstream, an effect opposite to that of insulin, which lowers the glucose. Atoms are colour-coded: carbon (grey), oxygen (red), nitrogen (blue) and sulfur (yellow). | |
