Aristaless-Related Homeobox Plays a Key Role in Hyperplasia of the Pancreas Islet α–Like Cells in Mice Deficient in Proglucagon-Derived Peptides

Defects in glucagon action can cause hyperplasia of islet α-cells, however, the underlying mechanisms remain largely to be elucidated. Mice homozygous for a glucagon-GFP knock-in allele (Gcg(gfp/gfp)) completely lack proglucagon-derived peptides and exhibit hyperplasia of GFP-positive α-like cells....
