Outline of Final Research Achievements |
When glucagon immunoassays were performed on plasma of proglucagon gene-deficient mice, positive reaction was undetected by sandwich ELISA, whereas detected in two different competitive immunoassay kits. On the other hand, in the gastric extract from proglucagon gene-deficient mice, positive reaction of the immunoassay was detected. Furthermore, by immunohistological analyses using various anti-glucagon antibodies in proglucagon-deficient mice, glucagon-positive cells have been observed in stomach. It is suggested that a glucagon like-molecule underived from proglucagon may be synthesized in the stomach.
