acinar cells
The acinar cells of the pancreas produce digestive enzymes.
Acinar cells
The Pancreas secretes enzymes for digestion and aqueous bicarbonate (a base) to neutralize acid entering the duodenum (the first portion of the small intestine) from the stomach. The enzymatic component is secreted by the acinar cells of the pancreas, while the aqueous portion is secreted by the epithelium of the pancreatic ducts. Here are some of the enzymes that are secreted by the acinar cells: -Trypsinogen 1,2, and 3 -chymotrypsinogen -proelastase 1 and 2 -procarboxypeptidase A1, A2, B1, and B2 -alpha amylase -Triacylglycerol hydrolase -Phospholipase A2 -Colipase 1 and 2. The pancreatic duct cells (epithelium of the ducts) secrete primarily bicarbonate, but they also secrete Cl. You can also find Na and K in the aqueous portion of the secretion. That answer for the what the pancreas secretes is: Insulin. The pancreas secretes the pancreatic enzyme protease, pancreatic lipase, pancreatic amylase.
Yes, insulin is secreted by the pancreas. This secretion is part of the endocrine function of the pancreas.
Renin
Beta cells
insulin
Insulin, C- peptide and amylin are produced by the beta cells.
Acinar
Pancreatic beta cells produce insulin. They are the only cells in the body that do so.
Originate in ER which are sent to the Golgi and then are secreted through the Plasma Membrane.
