Explore the intricate process of insulin synthesis and secretion in this comprehensive medical lecture. Delve into the structure and function of the pancreas, focusing on the Islets of Langerhans and their cellular composition. Learn about the different cell types within the islets, including B cells, A cells, and D cells, and their respective roles in hormone production. Examine the molecular structure of insulin precursors, from pre-proinsulin to the biologically active insulin molecule. Understand the genetic basis of insulin synthesis, including transcription and translation processes. Discover the journey of insulin through cellular compartments, from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex and secretory vesicles. Gain insights into the regulation of insulin release and its role as a major anabolic hormone. This in-depth exploration of insulin biology is essential for medical students and professionals seeking to enhance their understanding of endocrine physiology and diabetes management.
