(1) alpha cells: glucagon; (2) beta cells: insulin; (3) delta cells: growth hormone-inhibiting hormone (GH-IH, or somatostatin); and (4) F cells: pancreatic polypeptide
Then you must be the pancreas!
Hormones are part of the endocrine system, which is a collection of glands that produce and secrete hormones to regulate various bodily functions.
The endocrine gland below the brain is the pituitary gland. It is split into anterior (adenohypophysis) and posterior (neurohypophysis) sections. They differ in the hormones they produce. Adenohypophysis: ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone), TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone), FSH (follicle stimulating hormone), LH (luteinizing hormone), GH (growth hormone), Prolactin Neurohypophysis: Oxytocin, ADH (antidiuretic hormone, aka vasopressin)
The endocrine glands produce hormones in the human body. These glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, adrenal glands, pancreas, and ovaries/testes. Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate various physiological processes in the body.
The alpha cells in the pancreas produce glucagon. Glucagon is a hormone that works in opposition to insulin to regulate blood sugar levels by stimulating the liver to release glucose into the bloodstream.

The three endocrine organs located in the abdominal cavity of the cat are the pancreas, adrenal glands, and the ovaries or testes.
The pancreas is generally described as a 'gland organ', as it contains both glands for endocrine and exocrine hormone/enzyme production. It is therefore technically both, but best described as a 'gland organ'. The primary function of the pancreas is to produce insulin and to secrete enzymes that aid digestion.
Parathyroid glands produce it.It is an endocrine gland dipped in thyroid.
Produces digestive enzymes, and as an endocrine organ, it produces hormones.
Glands in your endocrine sysytem. Such as the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal gland. I believe even the pancreas does too.
Diabetes mellitus is the common condition associated with the endocrine system where the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, leading to elevated blood glucose levels.
Yes. In stressful conditions, adrenal medulla produce this hormone.
Then you must be the pancreas!
The pancreas is a dual-function gland. While most glands are either exocrine or endocrine, the pancreas has both exocrine and endocrine functions. Exocrine glands secrete substances outside the body or into the gut, while endocrine glands secrete substances into the blood. Consequently, the physiology of the pancreas can be considered in the context of the substances that the pancreas releases into the gut (it does not excrete substances outside the body) or into the blood. Products from the exocrine portion of the pancreas are called enzymes and include trypsin, chymotrypsin, pancreatic amylase, and pancreatic lipase. Major products of the endocrine pancreas are called hormones and include insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin.
