Rat Beta Insulinoma Cell Line-RIN-M5F
Product Overview
The Rat Beta Insulinoma Cell Line-RIN-M5F is derived from a rat pancreatic beta-cell tumor and exhibits an epithelial-like morphology. These cells are capable of secreting insulin and L-dopa decarboxylase (an APUD activity marker). Unlike some other related cell lines, RIN-M5F cells do not produce somatostatin. However, their high levels of insulin secretion make them a common model for studying pancreatic beta-cell function.
