In this study we investigated the effect of insulin on striatal 5-hydroxytryptamine and tryptamine in streptozotocin-diabetic and in normal rats. Streptozotocin-diabetic rats show a reduction in rat striatal tryptophan, 5-hydroxytryptamine, and 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid, an effect observed at 7 or
