摘要

During pancreas development, both the exocrine and endocrine lineages differentiate from a common pool of progenitor cells with similarities to mature pancreatic duct cells. A small set of transcription factors, including Tcf2, Onecut1, and Foxa2, has been identified in these pancreatic progenitor cells. The Sry/HMG box transcription factor Sox9 is also expressed in the early pancreatic epithelium and is required for normal pancreatic exocrine and endocrine development in humans. In this study, we found Sox9 in mice specifically expressed with the other progenitor transcription factors in both pancreatic progenitor cells and duct cells in the adult pancreas. Sox9 directly bound to all three genes in vitro and in intact cells, and regulated their expression. In turn, both Foxa2 and Tcf2 regulated Sox9 expression, demonstrating feedback circuits between these genes. Furthermore, Sox9 activated the expression of the proendocrine factor Neurogenin3, which also depends on the other members of the progenitor transcription network. These studies indicate that Sox9 plays a dual role in pancreatic progenitor ceils: both maintaining a stable transcriptional network and supporting the programs by which these cells differentiate into distinct lineages.
