Describe The Relationship Between Insulin And Glucose

Insulin is the very important hormone coordinating the use of fuels by tissues , also it’s secretion by the β cells of the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas is directly matched with the release of glucagon by pancreatic α cells. The relative amounts of insulin and glucagon released by the pancreas are regulated therefor that the rate of hepatic glucose production is maintained equal to the use of glucose by peripheral tissues.(12)
The ‘fuel-sensing’ β -cell is superbly designed to release insulin when stimulated by dietary nutrients, particularly glucose involves the regulated transport glucose in to the cell, mediated by the facilitative glucose transporter Glut4. GLUT-4 is abundant in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. (13,14)
