Atoh8 is a transcription factor of the basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family that is expressed in multiple tissues during embryonic development but whose specific functions remain unknown. The gene encoding Atoh8 is induced by various lineage- determining bHLH transcription factors in cell culture, ...

We have developed an in vitro model of Ngn3-dependent differentiation by infecting pancreatic duct cell lines with an Ngn3-expressing adenovirus. We used glass microarrays containing 18,000 mouse cDNAs and compared gene expression patterns in mPAC L20 cells infected with either AdCMV-gal (control) o...

Neurog3 and NeuroD1 share the ability to induce endocrine differentiation when expressed ectopically in vivo (Apelqvist et al., 1999; Schwitzgebel et al., 2000; Grapin-Botton et al., 2001) and in vitro (Heremans et al., 2002; Gasa et al., 2004), suggesting that they target a common set of genes. To...

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Manoeuvres aimed at increasing beta cell mass have been proposed as regenerative medicine strategies for diabetes treatment. Raf-1 kinase inhibitor protein 1 (RKIP1) is a common regulatory node of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathways and...

Relative beta cell deficit and increased beta cell apoptosis are hallmarks of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The Insulin/Insulin Growth Factor (Igf) signaling pathway is an established regulator of beta cell survival and is found downregulated in human T2D islets. The Insulin Receptor Substrate 2 (Irs2) pla...
