Expression data comparing adult human islets to human embryonic stem cell-derived insulin-positive and insulin-negative cells

The study was completed to compare expression profiles of primary human beta cells (in the form of adult human islets), to the expression profile of hESC-derived beta-like cells. A HES3 line modified by homologous recombination to express GFP under the insulin promoter allowed us to FACS sort the hESC-derived cells into purified insulin-positive (presumably beta-like cells), and insulin-negative populations.
