which pancreatic hormones are counter - regulatory in that they have opposite effects on blood glucose?
insulin and glucagon
glucagon and somatostain
insulin and pancreatic polypeptide
somatostatin and pancreatic polypeptide
Insulin lowers blood glucose by promoting glucose uptake into cells. Glucagon raises blood glucose by stimulating glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. They have opposite effects on blood glucose levels. Somatostatin inhibits insulin and glucagon secretion. Pancreatic polypeptide regulates pancreatic exocrine and endocrine secretion but not directly counter - regulatory to insulin in the same way as glucagon.
