Question
Chapter 33.5, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
How an insulinoma affects blood glucose level and liver activity.
Introduction:
Insulinomas are tumors that affect pancreas and it is derived from ß-cells. Insulinoma is a rare type of neuroendocrine tumor. It is also known as islet cell tumor. Insulinomas belong to the functional PNET (Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor) group as they increase the secretion of insulin.

WHAT IF? Suppose you were studying two groupsof obese people with genetic abnormalities in theleptin pathway. In one group, the leptin levels areabnormally high; in the other group, they are abnormally low. How would each group’s leptin levels changeif they ate a low-calorie diet for an extended period?Explain.

Insulin's adverse side effects include headache, nau- sea, hunger, confusion and weakness. What can these symptoms be attributed to? Insulin has major effects on muscle and adipose tissue. It increases the rate of glucose transport across the cell membrane, decreases the rate of lipolysis, and increases uptake of triglycerides and some amino acids from the blood. In doing so, what metabolic processes does it favor? Carbohydrates: Lipids: Proteins:arrow_forward
