Discussion

liz askew Nov 10, 2021:
As nouns the difference between secretion and release is that secretion is (label) any substance that is secreted by an organism or secretion can be the act of hiding something while release is the event of setting (someone or something) free (eg hostages, slaves, prisoners, caged animals, hooked or stuck mechanisms).

As a verb release is to let go (of); to cease to hold or contain or release can be to lease again; to grant a new lease of; to let back.

to let a substance flow out

You can go to the original publication for more accurate understanding.
Vitamin D is usually stored in adipose tissue, and when needed, it is released/let out from the tissue for normal physiological functions. However the researcher found that for people with obesity, less or no Vitamin D gets out of the adipose tissue into the body.
Example sentence:

Due to phosphorylation, ADP is released and a change occurs in the pump. (describing sodium-potassium pump functions)
