Abstract

Cell replacement therapy holds promises for treatment of patients suffering from diabetes mellitus. When determining the appropriate strategies to amplify the amount of transplantable β-cells, sufficient knowledge of the developmental programs regulating β-cell differentiation is crucial. Here, we describe the plasticity of the different pancreatic cell types in vivo and in vitro and their potential to serve as β-cell progenitor.
