Now, along with insulin, beta cells also secrete islet amyloid polypeptide, or amylin, so while beta cells are cranking out insulin they also secrete an increased amount of amylin.
同时，除胰岛素外，β细胞也会分泌胰岛淀粉样多肽（胰淀素），所以当β细胞分泌更多胰岛素时，它们也分泌了更多的胰淀素。

Amylin
（重定向自Islet amyloid polypeptide）
Amylin, or islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), is a 37-residue peptide hormone. It is cosecreted with insulin from the pancreatic β-cells in the ratio of approximately 100:1. Amylin plays a role in glycemic regulation by slowing gastric emptying and promoting satiety, thereby preventing post-prandial spikes in blood glucose levels.
