pancreatic glandular cells
Pancreatic glandular cells are specialized cells found in the pancreas, an organ that plays a crucial role in digestion and blood sugar regulation. These cells are responsible for producing digestive enzymes, such as amylase and lipase, which help break down carbohydrates and fats in the food we eat.
In addition to digestive enzymes, pancreatic glandular cells also produce hormones like insulin and glucagon. These hormones are essential for maintaining proper blood sugar levels in the body. Insulin lowers blood sugar, while glucagon raises it, working together to ensure metabolic balance.
