In a namesake therapy, this protein is administered to counteract the effects caused by BARAs and calcium-channel antagonists. This compound is commonly used as an alternative non-drug inhibitor-based treatment for a beta-blocker overdose. Drugs called gliptins function by preventing dipeptidyl peptidase-4 enzymes from degrading GIPs and a group of peptides named for being “like” this protein. The secretion of this hormone can be pharmaceutically (emphasize) inhibited by (*) incretin mimicking GLP-1 receptor agonists such as Rybelsus and Ozempic. This hormone, which is synthesized by alpha cells residing in the Islet of Langerhans, stimulates the liver to break down glycogen into glucose. For 10 points, what hormone primarily responsible for increasing blood sugar levels is opposed by insulin? ■END■
