Molecular Insights into Insulin Secretion
Description
The secretion of insulin is a multifaceted process. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) is the principal mechanism of insulin secretion, which also coordinates with metabolites, hormones, and neurotransmitters. Hormonal factors, such as GLP-1 and GIP, as well as Ca2+, ATP, cAMP, and phospholipid-derived signals, including diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate regulate insulin secretion.
