Diabetes is a result of the insufficient production of what?
insulin in the pancreas
What is the disorder in which cells are unable to obtain glucose from the blood such that high blood-glucose levels result?
Diabetes is what you're asking for. However, it is not the bodys inability to obtain glucose from the blood. It is the inability of the pancreas to secrete insulin to help control the amount of glucose in the body.
What gland scretes diabetes mellitus?
Diabetes is caused by any defect onlow or no secretion of insulin orimproper use of insulinInsulin is secreted by the gland "Pancreas". So pancreas is responsible for diabetes, it the cause is low insulin secretion (type II diabetes) or no insulin secretion (type I diabetes).Body cells is not sensitive to insulin, then diabetes type II is caused called as insulin resistance.
When blood glucose level rises the pancreas secretes insulin and as a result blood glucose level declines When blood glucose level is low the pancreas secretes glucagon and as a result blood gluc?
Insulin decrease glucose level.Glucogon increase glucose level.
When insulin producing cells have been destroyed is it type 1 or type 2 diabetes?
the Answer is type 1 diabetes. why? its because since the insulin producing cell called "beta cell" have been destroyed. hence the pancreas do not produce insulin at all. (1). The pancreas makes little or no insulin. and inability of insulin to circulating in the bloodstream, glucose cannot enter body cells. As a result, glucose remains in the bloodstream. (2). Without insulin in the blood, the liver cannot absorb glucose. Instead, the liver releases some of the glucose it has stored into the bloodstream. and finally (3). Absence of insulin in the blood, body cells cannot accept glucose. Too much glucose builds up in the bloodstream, resulting in the medical problems associated with diabetes.
What improvements result following a pancreas transplantation?
In a successful transplant, the pancreas begins producing insulin, bringing the regulation of glucose back under control.
Diabetes mellitus is a disorder of what?
Diabetes mellitus occurs when the pancreas doesn't make enough or any of the hormone insulin, or when the insulin produced doesn't work effectively. In diabetes, this causes the level of glucose in the blood to be too high.
What positive result is seen immediately following a pancreas transplantation?
In a successful transplant, the pancreas begins producing insulin, bringing the regulation of glucose back under control.
When blood glucose level rises the pancreas secretes insulin and as a result blood glucose level declines when blood glucose level is low the pancreas secretes glycogen and as a result blood glucose?
Catalytic feedback
Ability of bacteria to produce insulin was result of?
Genetic engineering of the bacteria.
What happens when a cell have too few insulin?
Insulin is a hormone that causes cells to absorb and store glucose. When the body fails to produce sufficient insulin, or the insulin is ineffective, the body cannot store glucose, and can become lethargic. Diabetes is the name for the condition where insulin is not functioning properly.
How does diabetes affect the level of glucose in the blood and in body cells?
The pancreas has cells which produce insulin. Insulin allows the body's cells to absorb glucose from the bloodstream. Diabetes is an auto-immune disease which destroys the insulin producing cells in the pancreas. Without insulin, the body cannot move glucose from the blood stream into cells, where it is needed to produce energy. The result is that glucose builds up in the bloodstream. This is fatal if untreated. NB: there are 2 main types of diabetes. Type 1, or juvenile diabetes, is of unknown origin and requires regular injections of insulin. Type 2 diabetes is lifestyle related and is caused by such factors as being overweight and unfit.
