<h3>What is hormone?</h3>

Hormones are the chemical messengers of the body. They make their way through your bloodstream to tissues and organs. They have a long-term effect on a variety of processes, including growth and development.

Amylin is a peptide hormone produced in tandem with insulin by the pancreatic -cell and is hence lacking in diabetics. It works as a satiety agent by inhibiting glucagon secretion and delaying stomach emptying. As a result, amylin replacement could potentially improve glycemic control in some diabetics.

Amylin is a 37-amino-acid peptide hormone released by pancreatic beta-cells in response to a food stimulation together with insulin. It is inadequate in Type 1 diabetes patients and increased in Type 2 diabetes patients in the early stages, a disease marked by hyperinsulinemia.
