It is known that glucose entering the blood from the digestive tract causes a more significant increase in the insulin content in the blood compared to the same amount of glucose, but administered intravenously. Explain this phenomenon, taking into account the results of the synthesis and secretion of insulin by beta-cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans.
For the answer:
1. Write the name of the molecules involved in regulating the secretion of insulin betta by the cells of the pancreas
2. describe the steps in the synthesis and secretion of insulin and the role of glucose in this process;
3. indicate which transmembrane mechanisms are used by the Gastric inhibitory polypeptide, the Glucagon-like peptide, which are secreted by the cells of the small intestine mucous membrane when carbohydrates and Cholecystokinin enter them to transmit signals to beta cells
4. why the effect of the Gastric inhibitory polypeptide and the glucagon-like peptide on beta cells appears earlier than the effect of the main activator of insulin secretion - glucose.
