Abstract
Endogenous insulin is the chief regulator of glucose homeostasis. It is formed in pancreatic beta cells and released into the portal vein in a pulsatile manner to act on the liver, muscle, other body organs, and on peripheral tissues. Insulin reduces hepatic glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, promotes glucose uptake and glycogenesis in liver and muscle, and triggers conversion of excess glucose to fatty acids for storage as triglycerides in adipose tissue (Hellman 2009; Zierler 1999).
