Insulin Production Pathway
Description
This template shows the insulin production pathway in a pancreatic beta cell, tracing glucose uptake through the TCA cycle to ATP production, which closes potassium channels and opens calcium channels to trigger membrane depolarization. This calcium influx signals insulin secretion, with preproinsulin processed through the ER and Golgi into insulin granules that release insulin into the bloodstream.
