These endocrine cells are scattered the various mucosal epithelial cells of the belly and small gut. There are 3 set up gastrointestinal hormones—gastrin, secretin and cholecystokinin (CCK)—and an extended list of applicants.

The pancreas is unique in that it is both an endocrine and exocrine gland. In different words, the pancreas has the twin function of secreting hormones into blood (endocrine) and secreting enzymes thru ducts (exocrine)
