Insulin is an important [[hormone]] in human sugar metabolism. It is formed in the beta cells of the pancreas ([[pancreas]]). The arrangement of these cells in groups diffusely scattered throughout the gland is reminiscent of islands under the microscope. Most frequently, the approximately 1 million islands are to be found in the rear part (pancreas-tail).
