Welcome to glucagon.com: a webpage devoted to the study of the glucagon-like peptides, and homepage of the Drucker Lab at Toronto's Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute (LTRI), Mount Sinai Hospital, directly adjacent to the University of Toronto campus.

Our laboratory carries out studies of the physiology of gut peptides, encompassing the mechanisms controlling their bioactivity, with a focus on glucagon and the glucagon-like peptides and their receptors. The laboratory is comprised of research technicians, research associates, and research fellows appointed to the Department of Medicine at the University of Toronto. Explore our recent research, publications and research reagents here.
