Glucose is one of the key nutrients required in the body. However‚ its amount in the body has to be regulated and maintained in a very narrow range. This regulation of glucose is performed by insulin hormone. Insulin is secreted at the pancreas and hence is referred to as pancreatic endocrine hormones. Insulin is secreted by beta cells‚ which are normally located at the pancreas. When the amount of glucose in the blood increases‚ the stimulus for insulin secretion triggered. The insulin level secreted

Pathology laboratories study disease. Diseases are mainly diagnosed through analysis of tissue‚ body fluid and cell samples. Pathology laboratories can also study the predicted or actual progression of particular diseases. Pathology is a field of general inquiry and research so addresses four components of disease. These components are cause‚ mechanisms of development‚ structural alterations of cells and the consequences of the changes. If a hospital sends off a sample to a pathology laboratory‚ when
