breakdown or malfunction in any one of these areas will cause a rise in blood pressure that requires medical intervention. Diabetes is a condition in which the body no longer produces the insulin needed to carry glucose out of the blood stream. The pancreas‚ a major endocrine organ‚ contains special cell types‚ called endocrine cells‚ which cluster together in the islets of Langerhans and secrete insulin and glucagon‚ the first step in blood glucose regulation. After a meal‚ if the endocrine system

The Pancreas The pancreas is probably one of the few organs that we really do not pay close attention to‚ but it is a very vital organ. The pancreas is a part of the digestive system. It is the largest organ in its system. It plays life sustaining roles in the regulation of food digestion and blood glucose levels. The anatomy of the pancreas helps us to understand each part and each section and how it pertains to the body. It is also very to study the physiology‚ because it tells us the functions
