Core Tip	Pancreatic β cells are highly effective and efficient in the production of insulin, and specialized in its regulated secretion. Deficiency of β cells causes diabetes mellitus, the prevalence of which keeps climbing, despite new drugs continuously becoming available to clinics. Thus regenerative therapies to this devastating disease show great promise. Nevertheless, the generation of β cells requires multiple forced fate changes from pluripotent stem cells and the latter derived insulin+ cells expressing selective key β-cell transcription factors may not be the genuine islet counterparts. Hence their post-genomic concept may help the future development of diabetes regenerative therapies.
