In humans, nonsense mutations in Ptf1a have recently been identified as a cause of permanent
neonatal diabetes associated with pancreatic agenesis. The death of Ptf1a-null mice ... Cited by 2 - Related articles - All 4 versions

proper development of islet β-cells. Hnf6 is initially expressed throughout the pancreatic epithelium
but is downregulated in endocrine cells at late gestation and is not expressed in postnatal ... Cited by 4 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 6 versions
