Background:

Pdx1 is a transcriptional activator of several genes, including insulin, somatostatin, glucokinase, islet amyloid polypeptide, and glucose transporter type 2. It is involved in the early development of the pancreas and plays a major role in glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene expression. Defects in PDX1 gene are a cause of pancreatic agenesis, which can lead to early-onset insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), as well as maturity onset diabetes of the young type 4 (MODY4).
