Generation of insulin-producing cells from the mouse liver using β cell-related gene transfer including Mafa and Mafb.

Generation of insulin-producing cells from the mouse liver using β cell-related gene transfer including Mafa and Mafb.

Recent studies on the large Maf transcription factors have shown that Mafb and Mafa have respective and distinctive roles in β-cell development and maturation. However, whether this difference in roles is due to the timing of the gene expression (roughly, expression of Mafb before birth and of Mafa...
