Abstract

The BETA2 (neuroD) gene is expressed in endocrine cells during pancreas development and is essential for proper islet morphogenesis. The objective of this study is to identify potential upstream regulators of the BETA2 gene during pancreas development. We demonstrated that the expression of neurogenin 3 (ngn3), an islet- and neuron-specific basic-helix-loop-helix transcription factor, partially overlaps that of BETA2 during early mouse development. More importantly, overexpression of ngn3 can induce the ectopic expression of BETA2 in Xenopus embryos and stimulate the endogenous RNA of BETA2 in endocrine cell lines. Furthermore, overexpression of ngn3 could cause a dose-dependent activation on the 1.0-kb BETA2 promoter in islet-derived cell lines. Deletion and mutation analyses revealed that two proximal E box sequences, E1 and E3, could bind to ngn3-E47 heterodimer and mediate ngn3 activation. Based on these results, we hypothesize that ngn3 is involved in activating the expression of BETA2 at an early stage of islet cell differentiation through the E boxes in the BETA2 promoter.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
