Acinar-ductal cell rearrangement drives pancreas branching morphogenesis in an IGF/PI3K-dependent manner

Jean-François Darrigrand, Anna Salowka, Francesca M. Spagnoli

The paper identifies acinar-ductal cell rearrangements driven by the IGF/PI3K pathway as a mechanism for pancreas branching morphogenesis while preserving acinar-ductal unit integrity.
