From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Enteroglucagon is a peptide hormone derived from preproglucagon. It is a gastrointestinal hormone, secreted from mucosal cells primarily of the colon and terminal ileum. It has 37 amino acids. Enteroglucagon is released following ingestion of a mixed meal, and delays gastric emptying.
