Effect of α-MSH, dopamine and serotonin on STZ-induced suppression of insulin secretion by RIN5F cells. STZ-induced suppression of RIN cells (rat insulinoma) is also abrogated by MSH, dopamine and serotonin and preserved insulin secretory capacity of RIN cells. *P < 0.05 compared to control; #P < 0.05 compared to STZ. STZ = Streptozotocin; MSH = Melanocyte stimulating hormone. RIN5F cells = Rat insulinoma cells that secrete insulin
