  2. Insulin signal transduction pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_signal...

    Fatty acids also affect insulin secretion. In type 2 diabetes, fatty acids are able to potentiate insulin release to compensate the increment need of insulin. It was found that the β-cells express free fatty acid receptors at their surface, through which fatty acids can impact the function of β-cells.

  3. Gastrointestinal hormone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastrointestinal_hormone

    Stomach, duodenum: Opiate-like actions Enteroglucagon: Small intestine, pancreas: Inhibits insulin secretion Galanin: Enteric nerves: Ghrelin: Stomach: Stimulates appetite, increases gastric emptying Glucagon-like peptide 1: Pancreas, ileum: Increases insulin secretion Glucagon-like peptide 2: Ileum, colon: Enterocyte-specific growth hormone ...

    Fasting: cyclic release every 1.5–2 hours by neural stimulus Glucagon-like peptide-1: Endocrine cells in small intestine Endocrine pancreas Stimulates insulin release; inhibits glucagon release Possibly inhibits acid secretion Slows gastric emptying Satiety; various CNS functions: Mixed meals of fats and carbohydrates

    1) Suppresses glucagon release from α cells (acts locally); 2) Suppresses release of Insulin, Pituitary tropic hormones, gastrin and secretin. 3) Decreases stomach acid production by preventing the release of other hormones (gastrin and histamine), thus slowing down the digestive process.

  7. Insulin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin

    A combination of a rapid acting and a protracted insulin is also available, making it more likely for patients to achieve an insulin profile that mimics that of the body's own insulin release. [ 103 ] [ 104 ] Insulin is also used in many cell lines, such as CHO-s, HEK 293 or Sf9, for the manufacturing of monoclonal antibodies, virus vaccines ...

  8. Heterocrine gland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocrine_gland

    Heterocrine glands (or composite glands) are the glands which function as both exocrine gland and endocrine gland. [1] These glands exhibit a unique and diverse secretory function encompassing the release of proteins and non-proteinaceous compounds, endocrine and exocrine secretions into both the bloodstream and ducts respectively.

  9. Parietal cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parietal_cell

    The pH of the secreted fluid can fall by 0.8. Gastrin primarily induces acid-secretion indirectly, increasing histamine synthesis in ECL cells, which in turn signal parietal cells via histamine release and H 2 stimulation. [6] Gastrin itself has no effect on the maximum histamine-stimulated gastric acid secretion. [7]
