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.

transduction would such changes have? For the answer:
draw the scheme of insulin signal transduction in the target cell;
name proteins and enzymes, activated by insulin in the target eells;
c) explain the functions of these enzymes.
3. Steroid hormone calcitriol activates an intake of dictary calcium, increasing
the amount of Ca" transport proteins in the gut cells. Explain the calcitriol
mechanisms of action. For that:
a) draw a general scheme of a signal transduction by steroid hormones and
explain the process;
b) name the molccules, which synthesis is activated by a hormone in the nucleus
of a target cell;
c) explain the function of these molccules in the cytoplasm of the target cel.
