Cholecystokinin (secreted when chyme enters the duodenum) causes the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas.
Gastrin has also been shown to induce production of pancreatic enzymes by centroacinar cells
the above answer is not correct.
secretin and pancreozymin are the two most important hormones which stimulates synthesis and release of pancreatic juices

Insulin makes body tissues take glucose from blood and store it as glycogen, glucagon makes them convert glycogen back into glucose.

The hormones produced by these endocrine structures are secreted into the?
blood stream
The hormones produced by endocrine structures are secreted into the?
Directly into the Blood Stream. Endocrine Glands release there secretions (hormones) directly into the blood stream. That is why they are unlike Exocrine Glands.
Which is a function of the hormones secreted by pancreas?
They stimulate the pituitary gland.8====D
How are hormones carried from the secreting gland to the parts of the body that are targeted by the hormones?
Hormones are secreted by ductless glands, hence they enter directly into the blood stream which carries it to the targeted organ.
What hormones are involved in blood glucose regulation?
Insulin causes the uptake of glucose from your blood into your cells. In a healthy person when blood sugar levels go up, insulin is secreted by the pancreas which causes a decrease in blood sugar. When they fall, your pancreas secrets glucagon, which causes cells to release sugar into the blood stream.
Hormones are secreted and released into the blood by?
glands
What chemical substance secreted by an endocrine gland directly into the blood stream?
Endocrine glands secrete chemicals called hormones directly into the bloodstream, influencing the activity of the muscles and organs.
What tells the body how much sugar should be in the blood?
The human body wants blood glucose maintained in a very narrow range. Insulin and glucagon are the hormones which make this happen. Both insulin and glucagon are secreted from the pancreas, and thus are referred to as pancreatic endocrine hormones.
What is a hormone secreted by the pancreas which lowers the level of blood?
Insulin
What is the hormone secreted by the pancreas which lower the level of blood sugar?
Insulin
What hormone is secreted when blood glucose is high?
insulin is secreted in response to high blood sugar.
What does glucagen and insulin do to sugar?
Insulin acts as a key, if you will, that opens cells to allow them to absorb glucose in the blood stream so it may be used for cellular respiration. Glucagon (you had a typo I believe) operates when there is not enough glucose present in the blood stream. It is secreted by Alpha cells in the pancreas, and acts on the liver to have it break down glycogen (bunch of glucose molecules strung together) into glucose molecules, which are then secreted I to the blood stream. Insulin and glucagon are called antagonistic hormones, because they have opposite effects that keep the body at an optimal blood glucose level (granted there are no diseases/disorders in the body)
