Abstract:Objective: Mice lacking the bHLH transcription factor (TF) Neurog3 do not form pancreatic islet cells, including insulin secreting beta cells, causing diabetes. In human, homozygous mutations of NEUROG3 manifest with neonatal or childhood diabetes. Despite this critical role in islet cell development, the precise function and downstream genetic programs regulated directly by NEUROG3 remain elusive. We therefore mapped genome-wide NEUROG3 occupancy in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived endocrine… Show more
