## ABSTRACE The clonal insulin producing cell line RINm5F was evaluated as a model for the action of cyproheptadine (CPH)-like diabetogenic compounds in the rat pancreas. Treatment with 10 & l CPH and selected structural analogs under culture conditions produced a progressive loss of cellular insu
It has been shown that okadaic acid (OA) diminishes insulin secretion of rat pancreatic islets in response to glucose, glyceraldehyde and KCl. Glucose, glyceraldehyde and KCl cause release of insulin by depolarization and subsequent opening of L-type calcium channels. Calcium entry into cells is tho
It has been proposed that mastoparan (INLKALAALAKKIL) and other mast cell secretagogues such as substance P (SP) or compound 48/80 act by direct activation of the pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive G-proteins in intact cells. Here we have investigated whether or not the antagonists of SP, [D-Trp7,9,10]
