Механизм действия
Glucagon
Glucagon is produced in the alpha cells of the pancreas (islets of Langerhans) and released when blood sugar is low. Glucagon binds the glucagon receptor (GCGR), a G-protein-coupled receptor expressed predominantly on hepatocytes. Activation stimulates adenylate cyclase, raises cyclic AMP and activates protein kinase A. This drives glycogenolysis (breakdown of hepatic glycogen into glucose) and gluconeogenesis (de novo glucose synthesis), which raises blood glucose. Glucagon also promotes lipolysis. As the counterpart to insulin it contributes to glucose homeostasis. It transiently relaxes gastrointestinal smooth muscle, which is the basis of its diagnostic use in imaging.
VK2735
VK2735 activates both the GLP-1 and the GIP receptor — a dual mechanism similar to that of tirzepatide, suppressing appetite and food intake.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Glucagon and VK2735?
- Glucagon is classified as "Метаболизм", while VK2735 is classified as "Метаболизм". Glucagon: Glucagon is a 29-amino-acid pancreatic hormone produced by the alpha cells of the islets of Langerhans. It is the physiological counterpart to insulin and raises blood glucose via hepatic glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. It is approved as an emergency treatment for severe hypoglycaemia and as a diagnostic aid; its receptor is also a target of modern dual and triple incretin agonists. VK2735: VK2735 is a dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist from Viking Therapeutics, in development in both subcutaneous and oral forms for obesity. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Glucagon or VK2735?
- The highest available evidence level is "РКИ на людях" for Glucagon and "РКИ на людях" for VK2735. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
- What is the legal status of Glucagon and VK2735 in Germany and the United States?
- Германия: Glucagon — Рецептурный, VK2735 — Не одобрено. США: Glucagon — Рецептурный, VK2735 — Не одобрено. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
