| Abstract |
Recently in Nature, Furuyama et al. (2019) provide evidence for lineage plasticity in the human endocrine pancreas, demonstrating that α cells derived from adult human pancreatic islets can be reprogrammed to become glucose-responsive, insulin-secreting β-like cells that are capable of reversing diabetes in mouse models. |
