The pancreas has both endocrine and exocrine functions as evidenced by: O Alpha and beta cells that secrete their hormones into a capillary network and acinar cells that secrete enzymes into the small intestine. O Alpha, beta and acinar cells that all secrete both enzymes and hormones into the pancreatic duct and bloodstream. O Alpha and beta cells that secrete their hormones into the small intestine and acinar cells secrete hormones into the small intestine. O. Acinar cells that secrete their hormones into a capillary network and alpha and beta cells that secrete enzymes into the small intestine.
