Abstract
⺠Epigenetic marks contribute to developmental choice between pancreas and liver. ⺠Transcription factors and epigenetic enzymes cooperate in cell fate maintenance. ⺠Declining proliferation of beta-cells with age is epigenetically controlled. ⺠Epigenetic drugs can be employed to alter fetal pancreas development.
