Ex vivo model for the assessment of the cytotoxicity of biological materialfrom patients with carbohydrate metabolism disturbances.

CONCLUSIONS: Blood serum, as multicompound biological material, influences negatively PC12 cell line but in a variety of ways. Increasing hyperinsulinaemia has a higher cytotoxic effect on the cells than hyperglycaemia, which probably results from the fact that it is compensated by other components of biological material; however, further studies are necessary to obtain more detailed characteristics of these processes.
