## Abstract In this study, the functional role of INSM1 is examined with an AR42J acinar cell model for trans‐differentiation into insulin‐positive cells. Islet transcription factors (ITFs: INSM1, Pdx‐1, and NeuroD1) are over‐expressed in AR42J cells using adenoviral vectors. Addition of Ad‐INSM1 a
