pancreas
They can be found in the stomach, intestine and the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas.
two cells types of pancreas are?
Glucagon is made in the pancreas
Answer = There are six glands in the Endocrine System. They are : 1. Pituitary Gland 2. Adrenal Gland 3. Thyroid Gland 4. Ovary Gland 5. Testes Gland 6. Pancreas Gland
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.
D-cells, or Delta cells, can be found in the stomach, intestine, or Islets of Langerhans (the hormone producing regions of the pancreas which also produce glucagon and insulin). Delta cells produce somatostatin, a regulatory hormone. When somatostatin is released it interacts with specialized receptor cells, these cells control the production of other hormones. Somatostatin coming in contact with a somatostatin receptor will inhibit the production of hormones that receptor controls.
Insulin is made by the islet cells in the pancreas. These are the endocrine cells found in the pancreas.
The pancreas has several cell types. The pancreas forms these small pouches that are formed by acinar cells, which make the proteins and enzymes in pancreatic fluid. These pouches then lead into intercalated ducts. The first cells here are centroacinar cells, which secrete bicarbonate. The rest of the ducts are lined by duct cells that change the electrolytic composition of pancreatic fluid. The pancreas also contains Islets of Langerhan. Within these islets you can find beta cells(produce insulin), alpha cells(produce glucagon), delta cells(produce somatostatin), epsilon cells(produce ghrelin), and PP cells(produce pancreatic polypeptide). Hope that helps.
Beta cells in the pancreas.
The beta cells of the Isles of Langerhaans in the pancreas secrete insulin.
The alpha cells in the Pancreas makes glucogon
