Global Human Insulin Market 2015-2019

About diabetes
Insulin is a hormone produced by beta cells of the pancreas that plays a key role in the regulation of blood glucose levels. It controls the body systems and regulates the uptake of amino acids by body cells. It helps cells absorb glucose from the blood. In diabetics, cells stop responding to the insulin produced. As a result, glucose in the blood cannot be absorbed by the cells of the body. This condition damages body tissues over the period of time and causes disabling and life-threatening health complications such as diabetic nephropathy and diabetic retinopathy. In type 1 diabetes, the body does not produces sufficient insulin to regulate blood glucose level. Individuals with this type of diabetes need to take insulin daily. Patients with type 2 diabetes also need doses of insulin coupled with medication. Different types of insulin such as human insulin and insulin analogs are available as insulin replacement therapy.
