glucagon receptor knockout models

Glucagon receptor knockout models are experimental animals, typically mice, in which the gene responsible for producing glucagon receptors has been intentionally inactivated or deleted. As a result, these models lack functional glucagon receptors, which play a key role in regulating glucose metabolism and insulin production. Studying these models helps researchers understand the specific effects of glucagon and its receptors on various physiological processes, potentially leading to insights and advancements in the treatment of metabolic disorders like diabetes.
