Insulin takes glucose from the blood and converts it glycogen that can be stored in the liver and muscles.

Insulin can increase blood pressure in a reaction called metabolic syndrome. It decreases glucose and developing studies show that developing Diabetes may increase calcium levels which can affect artery calcium deposits. These deposits are associated with high blood pressure.

What condition causes insulin to be released by beta cells?

Insulin is released from the pancreatic beta cell due to a symphony of signals. 1st is the increase intracellular level of glucose after we eat. As glucose increases this also increases the intracellular ATP. The increase in ATP closes Potassium channels. This depolarizes the cell. The depolarization opens voltage gated calcium channels and the influx of calcium. Then in a complicated process this causes more calcium to enter the cell from the ER. The huge influx of calcium into the cell cause the insulin containing vesicles to move to the membrane for release of the insulin into the blood stream.

What the body does to increase glucose levels?

Does insulin decrese blood glucose or blood pressure?

Insulin decreases blood glucose levels by promoting the uptake of glucose into cells. It does not directly affect blood pressure, although maintaining normal blood glucose levels can indirectly help in managing blood pressure.


Insulin causes a a decrease in the concentration of blood glucose b an increase in the concentration of blood glucose?

Insulin causes a decrease in the concentration of blood glucose by promoting the uptake of glucose into cells, especially muscle and adipose tissue. It also stimulates the storage of glucose as glycogen in the liver and muscle.


What would the increase of insulin result to?

a decrease in the amount of glucose in the blood


What happens to the concentration of the blood glucose if not enough insulin is produced?

If not enough insulin is produced, the concentration of blood glucose will increase because insulin is responsible for helping glucose enter cells to be used for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose remains in the bloodstream, leading to high blood sugar levels, a condition known as hyperglycemia.


When blood glucose level rises the pancreas secretes insulin and as a result blood glucose level declines When blood glucose level is low the pancreas secretes glucagon and as a result blood gluc?

Insulin decrease glucose level.Glucogon increase glucose level.


What does an increase in insulin lead to?

An increase in insulin leads to a decrease in blood sugar levels by promoting the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream into cells, especially muscle and fat cells. It also inhibits the production of glucose in the liver and promotes the storage of excess glucose as glycogen or fat.


Which hormone will increase blood glucose levels?

Glucagon is catabolic and increases blood glucose levels, insulin is anabolic decreases blood glucose levels.


What mineral's main role is to increase the effectiveness of insulin in cells?

Chromium is important in carbohydrate metabolism. Chromium stimulates the activity of enzymes involved in the metabolism of glucose for energy and appears to increase the effectiveness of insulin and its ability to handle glucose, preventing hypoglycemia or Diabetes.
