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.
