- Abstract
The article discusses a study on the contributions of the neogeneic pathway to new &Beta-cell formation. The study considers whether postnatal neogenesis occurs and to what extent, the possible differences between mammalian species and whether it might be exploited for the therapeutic treatment of diabetes. It concludes that both &Beta-cell replication and neogenesis are pathways that contribute to maintaining an adequate Β-cell mass after birth.
