What else can I help you with?
Insulin is secreted from structures called?
Insulin is secreted from structures called pancreatic beta cells located in the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas.
Is insulin secreted by endocrine or exocrine glands?
Insulin is synthesized in significant quantities only in beta cells in the pancreas.
What contains alpha beta and delta cells?
The Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas contain alpha, beta, and delta cells. These cells are responsible for producing different hormones: alpha cells produce glucagon, beta cells produce insulin, and delta cells produce somatostatin.
What produces the hormones insulin and glucagon?
The pancreas produces enzymes and insulin.
Which part of the body is responsible for the production insuline?
The pancreas has specialized cells taht make the hormone insulin, which regulates blood sugar uptake into the body.
What cells in the pancreas that secrete glucagon are called?
The cells in the pancreas that secrete glucagon are called alpha cells. These cells are located in the islets of Langerhans within the pancreas and are responsible for producing and releasing glucagon in response to low blood sugar levels.
Where in the human body would you find the glands that secrets insulin?
sugar/glucosePancreas is the structure in the human body that is the usual source of insulin
Which glands produce insulin?
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.)
What does the pancreas release?
The pancreas is endocrine (producing several important hormones, including insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin). The most important is insulin which controls the take-up of glucose by the body's cells.
Specialized islet cells that secrete hormones are found scattered throughout the?
I think alpha cells in the pancreas secretes hormone insulin. Beta cells of pancreas secretes hormone glucagon. Both insulin and glucagon have antagonist effect of one another.
What glands secrete hormones such as insulin?
The beta cells of the Isles of Langerhaans in the pancreas secrete insulin.
The source and function of insulin?
It is produced in beta cells in pancreas.It reduce the blood sugar level
