What else can I help you with?
Diabetes is a result of the insufficient production of what?
insulin in the pancreas
What is the disorder in which cells are unable to obtain glucose from the blood such that high blood-glucose levels result?
Diabetes is what you're asking for. However, it is not the bodys inability to obtain glucose from the blood. It is the inability of the pancreas to secrete insulin to help control the amount of glucose in the body.
What gland scretes diabetes mellitus?
Diabetes is caused by any defect onlow or no secretion of insulin orimproper use of insulinInsulin is secreted by the gland "Pancreas". So pancreas is responsible for diabetes, it the cause is low insulin secretion (type II diabetes) or no insulin secretion (type I diabetes).Body cells is not sensitive to insulin, then diabetes type II is caused called as insulin resistance.
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.
When insulin producing cells have been destroyed is it type 1 or type 2 diabetes?
the Answer is type 1 diabetes. why? its because since the insulin producing cell called "beta cell" have been destroyed. hence the pancreas do not produce insulin at all. (1). The pancreas makes little or no insulin. and inability of insulin to circulating in the bloodstream, glucose cannot enter body cells. As a result, glucose remains in the bloodstream. (2). Without insulin in the blood, the liver cannot absorb glucose. Instead, the liver releases some of the glucose it has stored into the bloodstream. and finally (3). Absence of insulin in the blood, body cells cannot accept glucose. Too much glucose builds up in the bloodstream, resulting in the medical problems associated with diabetes.
What improvements result following a pancreas transplantation?
In a successful transplant, the pancreas begins producing insulin, bringing the regulation of glucose back under control.
Diabetes mellitus is a disorder of what?
Diabetes mellitus occurs when the pancreas doesn't make enough or any of the hormone insulin, or when the insulin produced doesn't work effectively. In diabetes, this causes the level of glucose in the blood to be too high.
What positive result is seen immediately following a pancreas transplantation?
In a successful transplant, the pancreas begins producing insulin, bringing the regulation of glucose back under control.
Ability of bacteria to produce insulin was result of?
Genetic engineering of the bacteria.
Does the endocrine system have a component that stops functioning and leads to diabetes?
Yes, the endocrine system includes the pancreas, which produces insulin, a hormone crucial for regulating blood sugar levels. In Type 1 diabetes, the immune system mistakenly attacks insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, leading to little or no insulin production. In Type 2 diabetes, the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough, disrupting glucose regulation. Both conditions result from dysfunction within the endocrine system.
Why does the pancreas does not work even it gets insulin?
The pancreas is supposed to make insulin, glucagon, and enzymes. When you become a diabetic, either the pancreas stops making insulin, or the cells in the body are unable to use insulin. If the pancreas stops making insulin, that is type one diabetes, and if the body cannot use insulin, that is type two diabetes. While it is possible to cause type one diabetes with alcohol abuse, both forms of diabetes are often a result of an immune response. Type one diabetes is usually childhood onset, and a virus or the immune system attacks the pancreas. Type two diabetes is often acquired through bad diet. You might get so much fat and plaques from the fat that the body mistakes it for invaders. So the body ends up targeting insulin receptors.
What's the relation between pancreas and pituitary gland?
In Anatomy and Physiology, Insulin is responsible for helping your glucose in the body be used by the cells for energy. it serves as the medium in which glucose can enter the cells for usage. In Diabetes, the patient has low, no, or non-functioning insulin in the body. This will result in increasing glucose in the body leading to Diabetes. So, Insulin is needed in order to lower the blood sugar in the body.
