1 Here, we aimed to establish an efficient protocol for maximizing generation of PDX1+/NKX6.1+ PPs from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). pps NK6 homeobox 1 Homo sapiens
2 These dissociated cells were subjected to an augmented duration of retinoid and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)10 signaling to induce higher PDX1 and NKX6.1 expression. Retinoids NK6 homeobox 1 Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSIONS: We provide a novel technique that facilitates appropriate cellular rearrangement in monolayer culture to yield a high proportion of PDX1+/NKX6.1+ PPs with an elevated self-replicating capacity, thereby aiding scalable production of functional beta cells from hPSCs in vitro. pps NK6 homeobox 1 Homo sapiens
