Suppression of Serum Growth Hormone Levels by Glucagon in Patients with Active Acromegaly

One mg of glucagon was given subcutaneously to eight patients with active acromegaly. Seven out of eight patients had a rapid decrease in serum growth hormone (GH) levels at 30 min after the glucagon injection. In two out of seven patients a rebound increase in serum GH following the early GH reduction was observed.<BR>On the other hand, oral administration of 50g glucose which caused a comparable increase in blood glucose to that after the glucagon injection elicited no early suppression in serum GH levels in the same patients. These data suggest that the inhibition of GH release induced by glucagon could not be related to the increase in blood glucose by glucagon.
