NCT02740829 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Peripheral glucagon action increases hepatic glucose production. In rodents hypothalamic action of glucagon paradoxically suppresses glucose production. Intranasally administered peptides have been shown to preferentially enter the central nervous system. We assessed the effects of intranasal glucagon on hepatic glucose production
