Specifications

Clone Host Grade Applications
Polyclonal Rabbit Serum E B IP IH
The pancreatic duodenal homeobox gene-1 (Pdx1) is a transcription factor that contributes to pancreas development, pancreatic b-cell differentiation and mature b-cell function (1,2). It plays an essential role in the commitment of endoderm to a pancreatic and later b-cell phenotype (2,3). In the mature pancreas, Pdx1 expression is more restricted to the pancreatic b-cells (3), where it promotes the expression of genes important for b-cell functions such as insulin, glucokinase and Glut2 (4-6). Mutations of the corresponding Pdx1 gene may be associated with diabetes and cases of pancreatic insufficiency (7).
