Publication date: 4 January 2018
Source:Cell Stem Cell, Volume 22, Issue 1
Author(s): Anna B. Osipovich, Mark A. Magnuson
Beta cell replacement strategies hold promise for permanently treating type 1 diabetes. In Cell Stem Cell, Xiao et al. (2018) restore pancreatic beta cell mass and normalize blood glucose in diabetic mice by reprogramming pancreatic alpha to beta cells using Pdx1- and Mafa-expressing adeno-associated virus infused into the pancreatic duct.
