2 Figure 1 Model for Pten deletion and ductal metaplasia
Pten-deficient centroacinar cells (green ovals) begin to proliferate during development. Centroacinar cell expansion leads to apoptosis of acinar cells (white triangles) due to loss of acinar integrity or survival signals. Progeny of these centroacinar cells form tubular complexes with mucinous metaplasia. Reproduced with permission from Stanger et al. (2005).
