Species-specific roles for the MAFA and MAFB transcription factors in regulating islet β cell identity

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with compromised identity of insulin-producing pancreatic islet β cells, characterized by inappropriate production of other islet cell–enriched hormones. Here, we examined how hormone misexpression was influenced by the MAFA and MAFB transcription factors, closely...
