In mouse embryo, MAFB expression is first detected at E10.5 (2,3). Early in development, MAFB drives differentiation of both glucagon-producing α-cells and insulin-producing β-cells in the pancreas, but later plays a more decisive role in the maturation and maintenance of functional α-cells (4,5). Consistent with MAFB playing a critical role in mature α-cells, MAFB is enriched in α-cells within two weeks of birth in the pancreas (6). Glucagon and insulin secretion is tightly regulated, and imbalances in these hormones contribute to metabolic conditions. Therefore, understanding the role of MAFB in α-cell development, maintenance, and physiological function may contribute to developing deeper insights into how these cells contribute to metabolic diseases like diabetes. MAFB also regulates monocyte differentiation, indicating MAFB functions beyond the pancreas (7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nDURS3; Kreisler maf-related leucine zipper homolog; KRML; MAF bZIP transcription factor B; Maf-B; MAFB; MAFB\/Kreisler basic region\/leucine zipper transcription factor; MCTO; MGC43127; Transcription factor MafB; v-maf avian musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog B; V-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog B; v-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog B (avian)\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 46, 48\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798070120617,"sku":"30919T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-30919t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
