Research Description
The pancreas is essential for normal digestion and maintenance of blood sugar levels. We study the role of genes and signaling pathways involved in the development and function of specific cell types within the pancreas.
The Oc1 (aka, HNF6) transcription factor is expressed in all pancreas cells early in embryonic development, but is "turned off" in islet cells just before birth in the mouse. We developed mice in which Oc1 is over-expressed or can be inactivated conditionally. These studies reveal that Oc1 is essential to generate the appropriate number of endocrine progenitor cells, but that it must get "turned off" in order for the insulin-producing cells to function properly. Current studies are examining how Oc1 interacts with other transcription factors such as Pdx1 in the developing pancreas to regulate endocrine differentiation and the function of mature insulin-producing beta cells. We are testing the hypothesis that Oc1 and Pdx1 cooperate to establish an epigenetic landscape permissive for endocrine differentiation.
Another developmental study involves the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) hypothesis, which states that the origins of many adult diseases begin with in utero exposure to environmental factors that affect developmental programming of gene expression and organ function. We are particularly interested in how maternal over-nutrition during pregnancy can affect pancreatic endocrine differentiation and mature function and whether this contributes to increased offspring risk of developing diabetes later in life.
Finally, the FoxM1 transcription factor is highly expressed in proliferating cells and is essential for normal cell division. We found that FoxM1 is required downstream of all proliferative stimuli in the insulin-producing beta cells. We have identified two prostaglandin receptors as being downstream of FoxM1 to mediate its effects on beta cell proliferation and survival. We are currently using mouse models of diabetes to test whether modulating the activity of these receptors in vivo enhances beta cell proliferation and survival in Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.

Posted: 7/8/2022
Seeking someone with a PhD in an aspect of Physiology, Cell, or Molecular Biology. The applicant should have experience with mouse models and tissue culture. Developmental biology background and microscopy experience helpful, but not required. There are two projects with which the individual would be involved. One project involves using genetic mouse models to examine the interaction of two key transcription factors in setting up a permissive transcriptional landscape to establish the endocrine lineage in pancreas development. The other involves manipulation of prostaglandin receptors activity in beta cells to promote beta cell proliferation and survival.
