Differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into two distinct NKX6.1 populations of pancreatic progenitors
3 Apr 2018
Abstract excerpt
The expression of a specific combination of transcription factors (TFs) in the multipotent progenitor cells (MPCs) is critical for determining pancreatic cell fate. NKX6.1 expression in PDX1 + MPCs is required for functional β cell generation. We have recently demonstrated the generation of a novel population of human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived MPCs that exclusively express NKX6.1, independently of PDX1...
