What is pro-acinar cell?

Hi

What is meant by pro-acinar cells in the following sentence:

A transient decline in Neurog3 expression from E11 to E12 coincides with peak segregation of MPCs into proximal, Ptf1aNkx6-1+ bipotent progenitors (BPs) and distal, Ptf1a+Nkx6-1 pro-acinar cells (PACs).

Thanks

Hello MCH!

We believe that this post does not fit the main topic of this site.

Not related to bioinformatics, please consult a textbook. It is a specific celltype in the pancreas.
