Descriptor

insulinas

Scope note:

Hormonas peptídicas que aumentan la absorción de GLUCOSA por las células de órganos tales como el HÍGADO, los MÚSCULOS y el TEJIDO ADIPOSO. Durante el metabolismo normal, las CÉLULAS BETA PANCREÁTICAS producen las insulinas en respuesta a la elevación de la GLUCOSA. Las formas naturales y químicamente modificadas de la insulina se utilizan también en el tratamiento de los TRASTORNOS DEL METABOLISMO DE LA GLUCOSA, como la DIABETES MELLITUS.

Scope note:

Peptide hormones that cause an increase in the absorption of GLUCOSE by cells within organs such as LIVER; MUSCLE and ADIPOSE TISSUE. During normal metabolism insulins are produced by the PANCREATIC BETA CELLS in response to increased GLUCOSE. Natural and chemically-modified forms of insulin are also used in the treatment of GLUCOSE METABOLISM DISORDERS such as DIABETES MELLITUS.
