Résumé

Transient expression of Neurog3 commits intestinal secretory progenitors to become enteroendocrine-biased progenitors and hence drive enteroendocrine differentiation. Loss of Neurog3 in mouse resulted in the depletion of intestinal enteroendocrine cells (EECs) and an increase in goblet cells. Earlier studies in developing mouse pancreas revealed Neurog3 gene dosage in endocrine and exocrine cell fate allocation. We aim to determine whether Neurog3 gene dosage controls fate choice of enteroendocrine progenitors.
