What is the relationship between diabetes, glucose in food, saliva, microvilli, blood transport of glucose, beta cells of pancre
kkurt [141]

Hi

There is an enzyme called amylase which is present is saliva and helps in the breaks down carbohydrates present in our food thereby converting it to glucose. When the glucose reach in body’s small intestines, there are some air ball like structures called microvilli that absorb the glucose the into the bloodstream.  

This glucose present in bloodstream triggers the beta cells present in the pancreas and stimulate the production insulin. As we know that, the diabetes in actual is the lack of insulin receptors or insulin. However, if there is glucose in the blood but enough amount of insulin is not present, it will limit the uptake of glucose and instead a part of kidney called glomerulus will take the glucose from blood stream. The kidney will ultimately filter out this glucose when the person will urinate. This causes wastage of body’s glucose and also causes organ and tissue damage to the person suffering from it.


Hope it help! :)
