This is a comprehensive review on interactions between pancreatic islet alpha-cell glucagon secretion and islet beta-cell insulin secretion. The author argues that in absolute endogenous insulin deficiency (i.e. in type 1 diabetes and in advanced type 2 diabetes), beta-cell failure results in no decrease in beta-cell insulin secretion, and thus no increase in alpha-cell glucagon secretion during hypoglycemia. However, the author also recognizes the increasing evidence that relative hyperglucagonemia, in the setting of deficient insulin secretion, plays a role in the pathogenesis of hyperglycemia in diabetes.

5. •• Unger RH, Cherrington AD. Glucagonocentric restructuring of diabetes: a pathophysiologic and therapeutic makeover. J Clin Invest. 2012;122(1):4–12. The primary author is a well-recognized pioneer who advocated for the potential of targeting glucagon and/or GCGRs in the treatment of type 2 diabetes as early as in the 1970s. This is one of best overview articles summarizing the important role of the hormone glucagon in the pathogenesis of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The authors provide the strong evidence and arguments for targeting glucagon and GCGRs in diabetes, and conclude that glucagon suppression or inactivation may provide therapeutic advantages over insulin monotherapy.
