What else can I help you with?
What blood glucose lowering hormone is produced by the pancreatic islet cells?
The pancreas produces a variety of hormones, two being insulin and glucagon, these hormones are produced by groups of cells called the islets of langerhans.
What produces the hormones insulin and glucagon?
The pancreas produces enzymes and insulin.
Which hormone acts antagonistically to insulin produced by the same endocrine organ?
That is the hormone glucogon. It increases the sugar level
Insulin and glucagon are examples of what type of substances?
Insulin and glucagon are hormones produced in the pancreas that regulate blood glucose levels. Insulin helps lower blood sugar levels by promoting glucose uptake by cells, while glucagon raises blood sugar levels by promoting the release of glucose from the liver.

The islets of Langerhans produce two peptide hormones-- insulin and glucagon--that interact to govern the level of glucose in the blood True or False?
True. The islets of Langerhans in the pancreas produce insulin and glucagon, which have opposite effects on blood glucose levels. Insulin lowers blood sugar levels by promoting glucose uptake by cells, while glucagon raises blood sugar levels by promoting the release of glucose from the liver. These hormones work together to regulate blood glucose levels.
What hormones do you produce that help regulate blood sugar levels?
The hormones produced by the body that help regulate blood sugar levels are insulin and glucagon. Insulin helps lower blood sugar levels, while glucagon helps raise them when they are too low.
What hormone does the pancreas release in response to high concentration of blood sugar?
That would be the peptide hormone called "Glucagon". (GLOO-kuh-gone)
What is the antidote for insulin?
glucagon
Insulin works as an antagonist to?
glucagon
What hormone is a partner to insulin?
Glucagon
Which of these is not produced by pancreatic islet cells?
Insulin is not produced by pancreatic islet cells. It is produced by beta cells within the pancreatic islets of Langerhans, while glucagon is produced by alpha cells and somatostatin is produced by delta cells in the pancreatic islets.
