During development, pancreatic endocrine cells are specified within the pancreatic epithelium. They subsequently delaminate out of the epithelium and cluster in the mesenchyme to form the islets of Langerhans. Neurogenin3 (Ngn3) is a transcription factor r ...

The pancreas is one of the major organs of the digestive tract. Its endocrine function, mainly regulating glucose blood level, is achieved by endocrine cells. These cells are organized in clusters, the so-called islets of Langerhans. During development, th ...
The pancreas is an organ of endodermal origin. It is composed of two different tissues; exocrine (acini and ducts) and endocrine (islet of Langerhans). The Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMP) are secreted growth factors from the TGFβ superfamily. These prote ...
All pancreatic endocrine cells, producing glucagon, insulin, somatostatin, or PP, differentiate from Pdx1+ progenitors that transiently express Neurogenin3. To understand whether the competence of pancreatic progenitors changes over time, we generated tran ...
The pancreas plays a central role in metabolism. The exocrine pancreas, composed of ductal and acinar cells, secretes and delivers digestive enzymes into the duodenum where they contribute to food digestion. The endocrine pancreas, constituted by the islet ...
The role of the Notch signaling members Notch1, Notch2 and Rbpj in exocrine pancreatic development is not well defined. We therefore analyzed conditional pancreas-specific Rbpj and combined Notch1/Notch2 knockout mice using Ptf1a(+/Cre(ex1)) mice crossed w ...
beta-catenin and Adenomatous poliposis coli (APC) have been implicated in non-ductal pancreatic cancers. As for many other organs, several recent publications show that beta-catenin and more largely the Wnt pathway appear to function at the level of pancre ...
Rapid acquisition of volumetric data is a mandatory prerequisite for small animal in vivo imaging. Due to its high sensitivity and capacity to extract the sample depth profile in parallel Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (FDOCT) complies with th ...
During early somite stages of development, the broad endoderm-derived foregut and hindgut territories become further subdivided along the antero-posterior axis into organs. One of these organs is the pancreas which serves two major physiological functions: ...
Mutations and deregulation of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) and beta-catenin are implicated in specific cancers of the pancreas, but the role of Wnt pathway in normal pancreas development and homeostasis is unknown [1-4]. This article reports a comprehe ...
