Detailed explanation-1: -The Islets of Langerhans are responsible for regulating blood glucose by releasing insulin hormone. If these cells stop functioning, then blood glucose will rise which will lead to Diabetes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The alpha cells of the islets of Langerhans produce an opposing hormone, glucagon, which releases glucose from the liver and fatty acids from fat tissue.
Detailed explanation-3: -A pancreatic cell that produces hormones (e.g., insulin and glucagon) that are secreted into the bloodstream. These hormones help control the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood. Also called endocrine pancreas cell and islet cell.
Detailed explanation-4: -The islet of Langerhans regulates glucose homeostasis through dose-dependent secretion of hormones including insulin from the -cells and glucagon from -cells1.
