Management What is pancreatitis? Pancreatitis is inflammation of your pancreas. The pancreas is an organ that makes insulin. It also makes enzymes (digestive juices) that help your body digest food. Pancreatitis may be an acute (short-term) problem that happens only once. It may become a chro...
The exocrine function of the pancreas is to produce pancreatic juice containing enzymes required for digestion like amylase and lipase which digest the ingested food particles. To study the endocrine function of the pancreas, the islets of Langerhans are of extreme importance. The islets have 4 kind...
The exocrine pancreas produces natural juices called pancreatic enzymes to break down food. These enzymes travel via tubes or ducts to reach the duodenum. The pancreas makes about eight ounces of digestive juice filled with enzymes every day. The different enzymes are: ...
Pancreatic cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancerous) cells form in the tissues of thepancreas. Thepancreasis a gland located behind thestomachand in front ofthe spine. The pancreas produces digestive juices and hormones that regulateblood sugar. Cells called exocrine pancreas cells produce...
The pancreas is an important digestive organ that produces a variety of digestive enzymes to break down food in the small intestine. Learn about the function of the pancreas, pancreatic enzymes (trypsin, chymotrypsin, & carboxypeptidase), pancreatic amylase & lipase, and the role of the pancreas ...
Pancreatic juice is deposited in the duodenum via ducts and contains enzymes that act on all three groups of nutrients: starches, lipids and proteins. It is the exocrine portion of the pancreas that produces enzymes. The endocrine part of the pancreas produces insulin. ...
Acute pancreatitis is a self-limiting condition. In most instances,the pancreas heals itselfand normal pancreatic functions of digestion and sugar control are restored. How do you know if your pancreas is producing insulin? C-peptideand insulin are released from the pancreas at the same time and...
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas (a gland that releases a digestive juice into the intestine). The pancreas is composed of acinar cells, which produce digestive enzymes, and the islet cells of Langerhans, which producehormones. ...
