REST is a major negative regulator of endocrine differentiation during pancreas organogenesis
SUMMARY Understanding genomic regulatory mechanisms of pancreas differentiation is relevant to the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus, and to the development of replacement therapies. Numerous transcription factors promote β cell differentiation, although less is known about negative regulators. Earlier epigenomic studies suggested that the transcriptional repressor REST could be a suppressor of endocrine gene programs in the embryonic pancreas. However, pancreaticRestknock-out mice failed to show increased numbers of endocrine cells, suggesting that REST is not a major regulator of endocrine differentiation. Using a different conditional allele that enables profound REST inactivation, we now observe a marked increase in the formation of pancreatic endocrine cells. REST inhibition also promoted endocrinogenesis in zebrafish and mouse early postnatal ducts, and induced β-cell specific genes in human adult duct-derived organoids. Finally, we define REST genomic programs that suppress pancreatic endocrine differentiation. These results establish a crucial role of REST as a negative regulator of pancreatic endocrine differentiation..
