Study Summary

This study examines how glucagon works to regulate glucose metabolism, based on new findings that suggest glucagon signaling in the liver has more than one role, and that these multiple roles can be opposing in nature. Understanding this biology provides an opportunity to develop new generations of glucagon-based drugs that target specific pathways, making them more effective at controlling blood glucose. Participants will complete paired, 5-hour hyperinsulinemic glucose clamp visits in which they receive either glucagon or saline infusions while blood glucose is maintained and frequent blood samples are collected. The primary focus is whether coordinated glucagon and insulin signaling enhances hepatic insulin sensitivity.

Primary Outcome

Glucose appearance will be determined using steady state computations, unless a stable tracer:tracee ratio is not maintained

Interventions

  • DRUG Saline (placebo)
  • DRUG Glucagon
