-secrete glucagon
delta cells: - correct answers secrete somatosin
Insulin: - correct answers -made up of 51 amino acids
-initially produced as inactive proinsulin; proinsulin is converted into active insulin with removal of c-
peptide chain
-secreted into circulation in a two step manner: low level (basal) and increased level (prandial)
Insulin mechanism of action - correct answers -Glycogenesis: Production and storage of glycogen
-Inhibits glycogen breakdown into glucose (Glycogenolysis)
-It increases protein and fat synthesis and inhibits ketogenesis (conversion of fats to acids)
*Overall: Insulin keeps blood glucose levels from becoming too high and helps blood lipid levels in the
normal range.
Type 1 diabetes - correct answers (β-cell destruction, usually leading to absolute insulin deficiency)
Immune-mediated
Idiopathic
Type 2 diabetes - correct answers (insulin resistance)
Gestational diabetes (GDM) - correct answers women without previously diagnosed diabetes exhibit
