Neurons have a relatively high and sustained demand for glucose. Unlike many other tissues, neurons are almost entirely dependent on glucose catabolism for energy, since most fatty acids do not cross the blood-brain barrier. Glucagon is a hormone that is released by specialized cells in the pancreas when blood sugar levels are low; glucagon activates a variety of metabolic responses to stabilize blood glucose levels. How would you predict that neurons respond to glucagon
