An Integrated Map of Cell Type–Specific Gene Expression in Pancreatic Islets

Abstract excerpt

Pancreatic islets consist of multiple cell types that produce hormones required for glucose homeostasis, and islet dysfunction is a major factor in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Numerous studies have assessed transcription across individual cell types using single-cell assays; however, there is no canonical reference of gene expression in islet cell types that is also easily accessible for researchers to query and...
