Processes of glucose entering cells. This figure describes three different processes of glucose entering cells. The first process is a normal process, when a person was not diagnosed with diabetes and his pancreas produces enough insulin. The second process is when a patient has type 1 diabetes. With type 1 diabetes, the pancreas gradually stops producing insulin, which accordingly disrupts the process of glucose delivery to cells. The third process is showing the consequences of type 2 diabetes, which is not caused by the pancreas not being able to produce insulin. There is enough insulin and glucose entering the organism, but the insulin receptors that allow insulin to enter cells have lost the ability to respond to insulin. Both types are very dangerous and cause a long list of complications and illness
