Insulin Release:
Activators, inhibitors
Activated by: Glucose, β2 agonists [other sugars, AA's, FA's, ketones & vagal stim]

Inhitibited by α2 agonists (SNS activating conditions: hypoxia, hypothermia, surgery, severe burns)
Actions of Insulin
Glucose uptake into SkM & Cardiac Muscle, Adipose & WBC's
Inhibits catabolic processes, induces anatolism
Upregulates GLUT4 channels in muscle in adipose
NB: affinity of GLUT4 higher than affinity of GLUT2 in β cells

not req'd for transport into brain, liver & RBC's

injected insulin will
↓ [glucose], [phosphate], [K+]
