This project investigates the role of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling in the differentiation of pancreatic progenitor cells into insulin-producing beta cells. It aims to understand the mechanisms that regulate this process for potential therapeutic applications.
Insulin producing beta cells are derived from bipotent pancreatic progenitors (bi-PPs) that constitute the primitive ductal epithelium.
While we now know a great deal about the transcriptional networks required for endocrinogenesis and commitment to the beta lineage, considerably less is understood about the cellular events that initiate delamination and activate differentiation networks.
The host group recently found that ligand-specific Egfr signaling is essential for these processes.
