Although pancreatic β cells are known to expand by self-renewal in postnatal life,
contribution by ductal progenitors remains vigorously debated. In a recent issue of
Developmental Cell, Jorge Ferrer and colleagues report lineage tracing studies that
challenge the ductal origin hypothesis (Solar et al., 2009).
