Nkx2.2-repressor activity is sufficient to specify α-cells and a small number of β-cells in the pancreatic islet

The homeodomain protein Nkx2.2 (Nkx2-2) is a key regulator of pancreatic islet cell specification in mice; Nkx2.2 is essential for the differentiation of all insulin-producing β-cells and of the majority of glucagon-producing α-cells, and, in its absence, these cell types are converted to a ghrelin...
