A member asked:
What type of gland is the pancreas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exo and endo: Hi. The pancreas is a mixed bag: 99% exocrine (digestive enzymes), and 1% endocrine (primarily insulin and glucagon). Like the adrenals (catecholamines in one section, steroids in another), the pancreas is digestive enzymes in certain parts, hormones in others. Good luck!
