A method for the generation of human stem cell-derived alpha cells

Deriving functional pancreatic cell types from human stem cells may have important clinical applications. Building on previous work, here the authors generate stem cell-derived alpha cells via a polyhormonal intermediate, which have a gene expression pattern similar to human islet alpha cells and be...
