Summary

This study identifies a specific combination of three transcription factors (Ngn3) Pdx1 and Mafa that reprograms differentiated pancreatic exocrine cells in adult mice into cells that closely resemble β-cells, and suggests a general paradigm for directing cell reprogramming without reversion to a pluripotent stem cell state.
