Abstract
Glucagon is hormone secreted from the pancreatic alpha-cells that is involved in blood glucose regulation. As such, antagonism of glucagon receptor signalling represents an exciting approach for treating diabetes. To harness these beneficial metabolic effects, two novel glucagon analogues, desHis1Glu9-glucagon-[mPEG] and desHis1Glu9(Lys30PAL)-glucagon, has been evaluated for potential glucagon receptor antagonistic properties. Both novel peptides were completely resistant to enzymatic breakdown and significantly (P
