How Insulin Works: The Science behind Blood Sugar Regulation

Abstract

Cazzola Perrier*

Insulin, a crucial hormone produced by the pancreas, plays an essential role in regulating blood sugar levels, ensuring that the body functions optimally. This paper delves into the science behind how insulin works, exploring its production, secretion, and action at the cellular level. Key mechanisms, including the insulin signaling pathway, glucose uptake, and storage processes, are discussed in detail. Furthermore, the paper examines conditions related to insulin dysfunction, such as diabetes mellitus, and the importance of insulin therapy in managing these conditions.
