Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a global problem of modern medicine All over the world scientists are study this disease in order to find new and effective therapies Numerous studies in recent years show very important role of glucagon, a hormone produced by α-cells of pancreas, in the pathogenesis of hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus. The review analyzed current ideas about the features of the formation and differentiation of α- and β-cells of the pancreas. Particular attention is given to α-cells population and their role in the development of hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus.
