A very small island.
The Islets of Langerhans is located in the pancreas.
Insulin is produced in the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas.
Rocky Islets National Park was created in 1939.

pancreatine
In humans only the pancreas produces insulin. There are clusters of specialized cells in the pancreas called Islets of Langerhans. The cell type in the Islets that produce insulin are beta cells. (Other cell types in the Islets produce other hormones.)
Insulin is the hormone that is secreted by the beta cells in the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. It helps regulate blood sugar levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells for energy.
The key features of pancreatic islets histology include clusters of cells called islets of Langerhans, which contain different types of hormone-producing cells such as alpha, beta, and delta cells. These cells are arranged in a specific pattern within the islets and play a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels and metabolism.
