Role of transcription factors ONECUT1 (HNF6), GATA6 and NKX6.1 during in vitro pancreatic differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells.
We have identified HNF6 as an essential transcription factor for endocrine pancreatic development. HNF6 binds to and possibly regulates other isletogenesis transcription factors, driving endocrine differentiation. ChIP sequencing of HNF6 as well as GATA6 and NKX6.1 during in vitro pancreatic differentiation will help to understand the regulatory mechanisms during cell fate decisions. Overall design: The human embryonic stem cell line CyT49 differentiated to gut tube endoderm and pancreatic progenitor cells were used for chromatin immunoprecipitation.
