Cell viability (a), testosterone (b) and progesterone (c) results for TM3 cell exposure to various concentrations of insulin. Cell viability was significantly increased at 0.01, 0.1 and 1 ng/ml insulin. Testosterone concentrations were significantly increased for all concentrations, while progesterone concentrations significantly declined. For testosterone, ANOVA repeated measures analysis of variance was significant (P = 0.015), as was the one-way analysis of variance (P < 0.001). For progesterone, ANOVA repeated measures analysis of variance was statistically significant (P < 0.001), as was the one-way analysis of variance (P < 0.001)
