Insulin Synthesis The discovery of insulin was one of the greatest events in medical history. The existence of insulin is as necessary as that of glucose (the body’s basic unit of fuel). Both of them are related and required for life. In order for the glucose to be regulated‚ insulin circulates through blood vessels and bind with particular (insulin) receptors‚ promoting interactions essential for the wellbeing of the body’s internal mechanisms. Insulin is a hormone synthesized exclusively
