Q. What are the pancreatic tissues involved respectively in the endocrine and exocrine secretions? What are their respective hormones and enzymes?

The exocrine secretion of the pancreas is produced in the pancreatic acini aggregates of secretory cells that surround small exocrine ducts and the exocrine pancreas secretes digestive enzymes of the pancreatic juice- trypsin, chymotrypsin, deoxyribonuclease, amylase, lipase, carboxypeptidase, ribonuclease, elastase and gelatinase.

The endocrine secretion of the pancreas is secreted and produced by small groups of cells dispersed throughout the organ called islets of Langerhans. The pancreatic islets make glucagon, insulin and somatostatin.
