Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

GIP, or glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide, is a hormone released from the duodenum that stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas in response to the presence of glucose in the bloodstream. CCK, secretin, gastrin, and pepsin do not directly stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreas.
