An Intra-BET Epigenetic Mechanism Driven by BRD4 Controls Pancreatic α-cell Expansion [scRNA-seq]

Listed in NCBI GEO

This study investigates the role of BET family member BRD4 in pancreatic islet organoid differentiation and endocrine cell development.

Description

Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed to characterize transcriptomic changes across three experimental systems: (1) human islet organoids following adenovirus-mediated BRD4 overexpression (B4OV) versus control; (2) pancreatic islets from α-cell-specific Brd4 knockout (αKO) mice versus control mice; and (3) stage 5 pancreatic endocrine progenitors following combined BRD4 activation and BRD2 suppression (B2sB4) versus control, after differentiation to stage 6.

The dataset enables identification of BRD4-regulated gene expression programs and cellular heterogeneity during pancreatic endocrine differentiation.
