Brief Summary: The goal of this crossover study is to investigate to what extend glucagon affects the kidneys The main questions it aims to answer are

Does glucagon regulate kidney function through extraction in the kidney in addition to glomerular filtration Does glucagon regulate kidney function by increasing renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate Does glucagon regulate kidney function by increasing renal salt excretion
Detailed Description: In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus plasma concentrations of glucagon are inappropriately high hyperglucagonemia Hyperglucagonemia has been speculated to contribute to the pathophysiology of diabetic kidney disease Previously glucagon has been assumed to cause glomerular hyperfiltration associated with urinary excretion of small proteins a characteristic of early type 2 diabetic kidney injury Further glucagon has been shown to acutely increase urinary excretion of urea sodium and potassium and patients with end-stage renal disease have elevated plasma levels of glucagon

The purpose of this study is to clarify the underlying mechanisms behind the physiological effects of glucagon on kidney function and the kidneys ability to clear glucagon from the blood in healthy males Specifically the investigators aim to answer the following questions

Does glucagon regulate kidney function through extraction in the kidney in addition to glomerular filtration Does glucagon regulate kidney function by increasing renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate Does glucagon regulate kidney function by increasing renal salt excretion

The renal extraction of glucagon and the renal effects of glucagon will be investigated during a constant glucagon infusion in 10 healthy men aged 20-60 years The study will be placebo-controlled Each subject will participate in three independent and randomized trial days with a washout period of at least four weeks
