Molecular Development of Endocrine Pancreas Cells
Model placing gastrin cells in the transcriptional hierarchy of endocrine cells in the pancreas.
Pancreatic G cells
- similar to alpha cells in that it is dependent on Arx.
- similar to epsilon cells in that both gastrin and ghrelin are frequently co-expressed with glucagon in the embryonic pancreas.
