<h2>Intestinal Epithelial Cells (IEC)</h2>
Explanation:
- <em>Polarized intestinal epithelial cells (IEC),</em> as well as the resident microflora, provide a barrier that guards <em>against microbial invasion</em>
- The necessity for the <em>epithelium </em>to maintain an intact barrier between <em>lumen bacteria</em> and the lamina propria is exemplified by the consequences after the barrier function is altered
- Impairment of the barrier function of the <em>intestinal epithelium may be a predominant mechanism in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)</em>
Secretion of glucagon from the pancreas results in break down of glycogen, which causes an increase in blood glucose levels. Glucagon is a hormone that is produced by alpha cells in a part of the pancreas known as the islets of Langerhans. It is released in response to low blood glucose levels and to events where the body needs additional glucose, such as in response to vigorous exercise. It stimulates break down of glycogen, activates gluconeogenesis (the conversion of amino aids to glucose) and break down of stored fats into fatty acids. This results to high blood glucose levels.
