Target Information
Insulin, a peptide hormone, is synthesized by the beta cells within the pancreatic islets. It serves as the principal anabolic hormone in the body, orchestrating several critical functions. Firstly, insulin facilitates the absorption of glucose from the bloodstream into liver, fat, and skeletal muscle cells, thereby regulating blood sugar levels. Additionally, insulin plays a role in the metabolism of fats and proteins, promoting their storage and utilization. Insulin is encoded by the equine gene INS. Insulin dysregulation is the hallmark of equine metabolic syndrome and has received attention because of its direct association with laminitis.
