The Pancreas
The pancreas is an org
both endocrine(secretes hormones directly
circulatory system) and exocrine(secretes
using ducts) functions.
• Exocrine function of the pancreas:
o Pancreatic cells produce pancreatic juice
stomach acid) and digestive enzymes
• Endocrine function of the pancreas:
• Beta cells: produce insulin
• Delta cells: produce somatostatin
7 Insulin
• Hormone secreted when blood glucose
• Stimulates the uptake of glucose by cells
adipose tissue) to lower blood glucose
Glucagon
• Hormone secreted when blood gluc
low • Stimulates the liver to break glycoge
glucose to increase blood glucose • Stimulates adipose tissue to break f
glycerol and fatty acids (to make gluc

Somatostatin
• A growth-hormone-inhibiting hormone

• Making plasma proteins and st

• Removes bilirubin (breakdown p
hemoglobin in blood) and Producing b
