Zusammenfassung

Pancreatic development is a yet incomplete understood process. This is mainly due to a lack of fast and efficient model systems. While mouse models are time-consuming and cost-intensive, pluripotent stem cell based assays require a complex cocktail of growth factors to drive them to the respective lineage. Herein, we approached this hurdle by using Xenopus laevis as an in vivo model and provide proof of concept by targeting transcription factors of potential relevance for pancreatic development. A series of methods is applied (i) morpholino based UTR-targegting at different embryonic stages (ii) in situ hybridiz…
