Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucose stimulates insulin secretion by means of an excitation-secretion coupling process in pancreatic beta cells. When glucose enters the beta cell, it gets converted to ATP, which leads to an increase in intracellular calcium ion levels, and ultimately the secretion of insulin.

__________ Stimulates _________ Secretion by Means of an Excitation-Secretion Coupling
