Choose one of these hormones: Glucagon, Insulin, or Thyroid hormone.
Lets talk about insulin.
1. Factors causing its secretion
There are 2 ways that cause secretion of insulin.
A. Direct ways
High level of blood glucose
High level of blood fatty acids
High level of blood ketone bodies
High level of blood amino acids
B. Indirect ways
Insulin is secreted into blood by the activity of gastroinhibitory peptide, glucagon, gastrin, cholecystokinin, secretin and epinephrine.
Stimulation of secretion of insulin is associated with parasympathetic nervous system.
2. Metabolic effects of insulin
A. Carbohydrate metabolism
Promotes storage of glucose in liver, muscles and adipose by promoting glycogen synthesis and uptake of glucose and inhibiting gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis.
Net effect - hypoglycemia
B. Protein metabolism
Stimulate RNA polymerase activity to form mRNA which forms proteins by translation. It inhibits the acitivity of transaminase.
Net effect - anabolism
C. Lipid metabolism
Increase synthesis of fatty acid, triglyceride and cholestrol. Inhibit lipolysis.
Net effect - lipogenesis
3. Regulation of insulin
This hormone causes blood glucose level to decrease. So, whenever the level of glucose falls and reach normal levels, then insulin secretion will be stopped. This will be negative feedback regulation.
