- Exocrine glands are one of two types of glands in the human body, the other being endocrine glands, which secrete their products directly into the bloodstream.
- The liver and pancreas are both exocrine and endocrine glands, they are exocrine glands because they secrete products, bile and pancreatic juice, into the gastrointestinal tract through a series of ducts, and endocrine because they secrete other substances directly into the bloodstream.
