    The document lists several hormones involved in diabetes and their sources and functions. Glucagon is produced in the pancreas and increases liver glucose production. Insulin is also produced in the pancreas and lowers blood glucose levels. Other hormones like GLP-1, amylin, norepinephrine, epinephrine, growth hormone, cortisol, and ACTH are also involved in regulating glucose metabolism and production.
