What is Secretin?

Secretin is a hormone produced in a duodenum that plays an important role in the digestive process and seems to be involved in osmoregulation, the process that the body uses to maintain the inner balance of salt and fluids. This hormone can also be introduced into the body, usually in a test that is designed to check the pancreas function. Secrection for injection or introduction to the body through the stomach tube is only available from a few pharmaceutical companies, only according to the regulation. Secretin is one of many participating players. When the food moves through the stomach, it moves to a partially cleaved state known as Chyme. We are very sour due to the stomach juices in which he was marinated, and when he begins to push the intestines, the secretine kicks into action.

One of the things that mysteries do not make acid in the chicid so that it does not damage the intestines. Unlike the stomach, the intestines are not equipped to deal with the rough stomach juices used in the early stages of digestion. UVOLening of the secretine also says the stomach to cease to produce stomach juices, suggesting that the next phase of digestion begins and that the stomach can take a break.

Secretin also launches the production of pancreatic juices and bile of the liver, which are used to lubricate budding when it moves through the digestive tract. In addition, if the glucose content in the diet is high, the secretin also stimulates insulin production to handle glucose.

In the secretion stimulation test, the patient will be injected into the patient to see the pancreas react. If stimulation with this hormone does not lead to the production of pancreatic juices, it suggests that the patient has a medical problem that needs to be identified and treated. This test can be unpleasant because the secretin is often introduced through the stomach tube and many people grab during the location and removal of the tube.

This hormone has another resolution: it was the first hormone identified. ScientistsWith the digestive tract at the beginning of the 20th century, they noted that this compound seemed to be an important role and broadcast chemical signals to alleviate the digestive process. This was contrary to the expectation that the digestive process was mediated by the nervous system, and changed the way scientists thought about the body and preparing the way to discover other "chemical messengers" called hormones.
