    But if there are lots of K+ inside the betacell when the potatiumchannel is closed, then how can Ca2+, which is also positively charged be transported inside the betacell?

    what about incretin hormones (GIH and GLP-1) and stuff like that that enhance exocytosis?

    Anyone watching should look into Chromium and its role in glucagon and insulin.

    Some steps are missing between calcium binding and exocytosis.

    Crazy thing is that Paulescu discovered Pancrein, but due to economical reasons he couldn't refine it to Insulin.

    when ATP binds to the K channel, why does K levels increase in the cell?

    • @dimkacracker
      @dimkacracker Před 4 lety

      it causes closing of the potassium channel so potassium stops leaking out of the cell which causes a build up of potassium inside the cell.

      @dimkacracker Před 3 lety +1

      @@hanaisphani9994 I think it's due to the sodium potassium ATPase pump. All cells have one so it pumps 3 sodium out for 2 potassium in causing potassium accumulation because it can't leave due to ATP blocking the potassium channel at 5:30
