PDX1LOW MAFALOW β-cells contribute to islet function and insulin release

Beta cell subpopulations with low expression in PDX1, MAFA, and insulin might contribute to islet function and insulin release. Here the authors show that altering the proportion of PDX1LOW MAFALOW to PDX1HIGH MAFAHIGH cells impairs islet function.
