Do the pancreatic islets secrete their hormones into the same duct system by the exocrine secretory cells?

No, the pancreatic islets, which contain endocrine cells secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream, while the exocrine secretory cells secrete digestive enzymes into ducts that eventually empty into the small intestine.


Endocrine glands secrete?

Endocrine glands secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream to regulate various bodily functions and maintain homeostasis. These hormones act as chemical messengers that travel to target cells or organs where they elicit specific physiological responses. Common examples of endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal glands.


What do secretory cells of the islets of Langerhans secrete?

Enteroendocrine cells secrete satiation peptides that produce the feeling of 'fullness' in the brain. Hormones from these cells also act to control gut motility, release of enzymes, HCl, bile, and other components for digestion.


What do endocrine cells secrete?

There are many hormones secreted by the endocrine system. The hypothalamus secretes releasing and inhibiting hormones that affect the production and release of hormones from other glands, mainly the pituitary gland. Here is a partial list.Growth hormoneLutiening hormoneProlactinAdrenocorticotopic hormoneAndidiuretic hormoneOxytocinThyroxineTriiodothyronineFollicle stimulating hormoneMelatoninThymosinThymopoetin


What tissue are glands composed of?

Glands are composed of epithelial tissue. These specialized cells can secrete substances such as hormones, enzymes, or sweat. Glands can be classified as exocrine glands, which secrete their products into ducts, or endocrine glands, which secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream.

What does the pancreas release?

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.
